Description

Elevate your interior with this exquisite Mid-20th Century Vintage Persian Malayer Rug, a rare gallery or corridor-sized piece that exudes timeless sophistication. Meticulously handwoven in the mid-1900s, this vintage treasure brings the unique character and natural beauty of authentic Persian village weaving to your home.

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.

The rug's visual depth is further enhanced by multiple intricately detailed floral borders, presented in a harmonious array of shades including various blues, verdant greens, classic reds, and creamy ivories. These vibrant borders collectively frame the central design with grace and artistry. The entire masterpiece is elegantly finished by a wide camel hair guard border, which provides a cohesive and refined frame, emphasizing the rug's natural origins.
