Mallayer / 32833

This Mallayer antique rug measures 127 x 218 cm and shows a delicately aged surface with an intricate field of interlocking geometric forms in muted turquoise, coral, cream, and brown. A slender pictorial border and repeating guard borders hold the composition in place, giving the piece structure while allowing the softened pattern to breathe. The low distress is visible in the gently faded pile and lightly worn edges, which enhance its understated character. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the measured clarity and heritage feel often associated with Mallayer weaving, expressed here in a calm, well-balanced palette.
