Mallayer / 32072

This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 241 x 401 cm, is rendered in a subdued palette of cream, white, soft green, and faded teal. A long central medallion anchors the composition, built from geometric floral forms and enclosed by a series of finely scaled borders. The surface shows medium distress, with visible wear, softened contrast, and an overall faded patina that lends the design a hushed elegance. Circa 1915 - 1940, this Mallayer reflects the measured balance, ornament, and ageing that give antique rugs their lasting presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
