About the Item

This mid-20th century Persian Malayer rug, measuring 3' 5" x 6' 1", showcases an imaginative and folkloric design rich with symbolic storytelling. A central ivory and blush medallion anchors the slate-blue field, flanked by stylized animals, birds, and floral emblems that appear to roam the landscape in a whimsical narrative. The inclusion of lion and peacock figures adds a distinctive character, referencing strength and beauty within Persian iconography. The field is framed by multiple borders, each with its own decorative language. The primary border is adorned with an angular floral vine on a pale aqua ground, while the inner and outer guards feature rosettes and geometric ribbon forms. The color palette featuring sky blue, soft coral, golden ochre, walnut brown, and ivory is both harmonious and nuanced, lending the composition a painterly quality. Woven with village sensibility and a playful spirit, this Malayer piece offers a charming window into the storytelling tradition of regional Persian weaving.
