mallayer / 29869

This mallayer antique rug measures 254 x 574 cm and presents a quietly worn palette of ivory, taupe, sage green, muted blue, and brown. Its long composition is organised around a softened central medallion, with floral fragments and border detail dispersed through the field, creating a richly faded, textural surface. Circa 1900 - 1930, it shows high distress, broad wear, and softened pattern clarity, lending the rug a calm, timeworn character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
