Woven approximately 150 years ago, it is a rare example of Malayer craftsmanship in near-perfect condition—a true find for collectors and design connoisseurs alike.

The rug features a beautifully balanced composition centered around a geometric medallion in deep blue, accented with rich red motifsthat echo throughout the design. The same striking blue and red combination continues into the border, creating a cohesive and visually grounded frame.

What makes this piece truly exceptional is its ivory field, intricately decorated with finely drawn stylized floral motifs. These delicate elements soften the geometry of the medallion, creating a sophisticated interplay between structure and ornamentation. The result is a composition that feels both bold and elegant—layered, detailed, and endlessly engaging.

Woven from handspun wool and dyed with*natural pigments, the rug retains a clarity of color and precision of design rarely seen in pieces of this age. Its condition is particularly noteworthy, with minimal wear and a beautifully preserved surface that enhances its overall impact.

Whether placed in a living room, study, or bedroom, this Malayer rug is a statement of heritage, artistry, and timeless design—a truly one-of-a-kind piece that elevates any interior.
