This Mallayer antique rug measures 99 x 462 cm and shows a long, elegant composition mellowed by age. The field is worked in faded floral patterning across an ivory ground, with taupe, brown, muted teal, and traces of rust creating a subdued, layered palette. A slim border runs the length of the piece with steady repetition, while softened medallion-like openings break up the centre. Circa 1900 - 1935, it reads as an antique rug with medium distress, gentle fading, and a timeworn surface that holds both texture and restraint. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
