About the Item

This antique Persian Malayer rug is a striking example of late 19th to early 20th century village weaving from western Persia, distinguished by its bold geometry and confident presence. The composition centers on a strong, faceted medallion set against a deep indigo field, surrounded by angular floral and tribal motifs that reflect the expressive, hand-drawn character typical of Malayer rugs. A richly detailed border frames the design, featuring repeating floral elements and rhythmic patterning that adds depth and balance to the overall composition. Woven entirely of wool, the rug displays a soft, supple handle and a beautiful patina that comes only with age and use. Its slightly irregular lines and nuanced variations speak to its handwoven origins, lending warmth and authenticity. Both decorative and collectible, this Malayer rug embodies the timeless appeal and artistry of antique Persian village carpets. Size - 10' 2" x 11' 9" Color - Multi-Color Type - Malayer **Certified and recognized as a “child labor free” rug company.
