About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Malayer sampler rug, measuring 2' 1" x 2' 6", embodies the inventive artistry of Malayer weavers who often used smaller samplers to experiment with a variety of motifs and compositions. The field is segmented into compartments, each containing distinct floral sprays, stylized leaves, and geometric ornamentation, presenting a patchwork of design ideas that could later be incorporated into larger carpets. Soft hues of beige, brown, ivory, and muted blues dominate the palette, lending the piece a gentle and versatile aesthetic. The asymmetric layout highlights the experimental nature of the weaving, where abstract floral clusters merge with angular lattice-like forms, reflecting both village traditions and urban influences. A framing border composed of alternating rosettes and angular vine scrolls encloses the central experimentation, adding cohesion to the diverse elements within. This sampler rug is not only a decorative piece but also a fascinating document of creative exploration in Malayer weaving tradition.
