Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and the Early 20th Century Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles Artistically Handwoven in Persia, the Caucasus, Anatolia, and Around the World
This exceptional Malayer rug features a striking open-field design set against a warm and inviting camel hair background. This natural, undyed wool provides a subtle texture and earthy foundation, perfectly complementing the intricate motifs. The field is graced by three prominent axial medallions, rendered in a deep navy blue and adorned with delicate geometric patterns in serene baby blue, soft pink, and elegant French blue.
The refined cream-colored field within and around the medallions is delicately adorned with a subtle paisley motif, adding layers of intricate detail. Complementing this, the corner spandrels beautifully showcase the classic Herati design against a rich navy background, creating a harmonious balance within the composition.
