Experience the enduring artistry of Persian weaving with this exceptional Vintage Persian Malayer area rug, dating to the early 1900s. This captivating piece features an all over geometric pattern set against a striking midnight blue background, providing a deep and rich foundation for its intricate design.

The rug is framed by a sophisticated French blue border, which beautifully complements the field. The larger format design elements within the field are imbued with a palette of vibrant accent colors, including French blue, lush green, bold red, delicate pink, and sunny yellow. The subtle variations within these hues, known as abrash, are a beautiful testament to the use of natural, organic vegetable dyes. Over time, these natural dyes gradually develop a wonderful depth and luminosity, enhancing the rug's character and authenticity.

The border itself is a work of art, featuring a charming meandering vine and flower design in harmonious shades of pink, red, and blue, all set within the rich French blue. This Malayer rug is truly a superb combination of sophisticated colors, intricate geometric and floral designs, and the very finest traditional Persian workmanship, making it an ideal centerpiece for refined interiors and a cherished acquisition for discerning collectors and interior design professionals.
