About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Malayer rug, measuring 3' 7" x 5' 11", beautifully reflects the artistic refinement and weaving traditions of northwestern Persia. Its field is arranged with a striking lattice of diamond motifs, each enclosing stylized floral rosettes and geometric elements, creating a rhythmic and balanced composition. Flanking these are angular boteh-like forms, paired with delicate flowerheads that soften the geometry with organic grace. The subdued palette of earthy browns, muted taupe, and soft slate blues gives the rug an elegant, understated appeal, highlighting the subtle interplay of contrast and harmony. The border is composed of wide bands featuring angular hooked devices and smaller floral rosettes framed by reciprocal guard stripes, lending structure to the design. Malayer weavers were known for their versatility, often blending tribal influences with town workshop precision, as seen here. This rug exemplifies their ability to merge geometric boldness with floral delicacy, making it a timeless decorative piece.
