Mallayer / 31336

This Mallayer antique rug measures 147 x 196 cm and offers a timeworn composition centred on a large blue-green medallion, outlined by faded rust red borders and an ivory field. Geometric pendants and tribal-inspired motifs organise the design, while the distressed surface brings visible abrash, softened contrast, and an aged, lived-in feel. The palette moves between neutral shades, muted blue-green, and warm red, giving the rug a quiet depth and balance. Circa 1900 - 1920, it retains its decorative structure even as wear softens the edges of the drawing. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
