Mallayer / 29805

This Mallayer antique rug measures 99 x 460 cm and presents a long, disciplined composition softened by age. Framed medallions, rosettes, and geometric panels move through a faded blue ground, balanced by a neutral border with fine floral detail. The surface shows medium distress, with broad fading, visible wear, and a gently timeworn finish that lends the rug its understated texture. Circa 1880 - 1910, it captures the quiet elegance and layered colour of a long antique runner, with an easy balance of structure and patina. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
