Mallayer / 31127

This Mallayer antique rug measures 173 x 307 cm and features an all-over arrangement of geometric floral motifs in cream, taupe, brown, muted grey, and traces of pale blue. A slender border and stepped medallion outline lend structure to the softly weathered field, where the design has settled into a balanced, timeworn rhythm. Medium distress and visible fading give the surface a gentle, lived-in character. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reflects the hushed palette and layered detail often sought in a finely aged antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
