About the Item

This mid-20th century Persian Malayer rug, measuring 3' 3" x 7' 0", displays a beautifully stylized medallion-and-spandrel layout with a soft, monochromatic palette of taupe, ivory, and muted greys. The elongated hexagonal medallion anchors the composition, featuring delicate rosettes, angular floral sprigs, and architectural motifs with a distinctly village sensibility. The field transitions in tone, offering a painterly interplay between light and shadow that enhances the rug’s dimensional effect. The spandrels mirror the design of the central field but in paler tones, contributing to the sense of balance and visual depth. The borders frame the piece in a sequence of interlocking rosettes and scrolling vines, all enclosed within slender guard stripes. This rug exemplifies the nuanced artistry of Malayer weavers, combining geometric precision with a lyrical approach to botanical forms. A refined and versatile piece, it would complement both traditional and contemporary interiors seeking subtle elegance with cultural character.
