About the Item

A finely woven authentic handmade 19th century Persian Malayer rug. Measures: 4'3" x 6'9" Finely woven for village Persian carpets, the best Malayer carpets were woven in the village of Mishin, and use a lustrous, resilient wool and subtle, mesmerizing, repeating patterns. Many of the weavers were of ethnic Turkish stock and the “Ghiordes” or symmetric knot was used in all Malayer carpets. The wool pile is often cut fairly short to accentuate the detail and clarity of the design. Like all of the most artistic village rugs, older antique Malayer carpets are excellent investments which are now just beginning to approach the full recognition they deserve.

Full Pile Condition throuhgout Measures: 7'8'' x 11'1'' The Serapi rug can be traced back to the beginning of Persian handmade rug production in 5,500 B.C., but it was not until the mid-19th century that Persian rugs began to be exported around the world.
