Mallayer / 29798

This Mallayer antique rug measures 97 x 353 cm and presents a long, narrow format with a timeworn, softly faded surface. The field blends floral motifs, repeating medallion forms, and geometric fragments, all held within a red border edged by angular, tribal-leaning details. Warm brown, muted gold, ivory, and rust red give the piece a calm, earthy palette with subtle variation throughout. Medium distress is visible in the abrasion across the field and the softened contrast at the centre and ends. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reads as an antique rug with layered age, quiet pattern, and tactile depth.
