About the Item
This antique Malayer rug features a striking and unusually graphic botanical design, rendered in a richly textured palette of charcoal brown, taupe, soft blue, and faded sand tones. The central field displays a series of stylized floral and vine motifs arranged in a mirrored vertical composition—an expressive example of Malayer’s village weaving tradition.
The stepped, scalloped field outline adds architectural structure, while the border showcases repeating geometric rosettes and alternating vinework that frame the design with balance and refinement. Gentle abrash throughout the rug softens the palette and gives the piece a painterly, timeworn elegance.
Malayer rugs are celebrated for their inventive artistry, versatility, and decorative nuance, and this example—with its moody coloration and strong graphic presence—is especially well-suited for modern and transitional interiors seeking depth and character.
