This Mallayer antique rug measures 97 x 442 cm and carries a slender, orderly field of floral-geometric motifs set within multiple borders. The neutral and brown groundwork is tempered by muted sage and restrained rust notes, and the visible abrasion has worn the pattern into a softly atmospheric surface. Its proportions emphasise the repeating ornament, while the border bands retain enough detail to frame the composition with clarity. Circa 1900 - 1920, it offers the pared-back, heritage-led presence associated with an antique rug shaped by age and use. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
