Elegant Craftsmanship: Antique Handmade Persian Malayer Wool Rug
Step into the sophisticated world of Persian weaving with this exquisite handmade antique Malayer rug, meticulously crafted from pure natural wool in Persia around the 1930s. Malayer rugs are celebrated for their unique blend of robust village construction and intricate, often classical, designs, setting them apart within the vast landscape of Persian weaving. This charming piece is in good condition, retaining its original beauty and ready to enrich your space with historical elegance.
Intricate All-Over Floral Design on a Luminous Cream Field
This captivating Malayer rug showcases a dense, all-over floral pattern that gracefully covers the entire field. The design features an enchanting array of scrolling vines, blossoming palmettes, elegant rosettes, and delicate floral sprays, creating a lush garden of motifs. Rendered in a harmonious palette of rich reds, various blues, verdant greens, and soft pinks, these vibrant elements contrast beautifully against the luminous cream/ivory field. A subtle, small diamond-shaped motif may be present in the center, complementing rather than dominating the intricate all-over composition.
The rug is framed by a broad, classical main border, adorned with a continuous vine of palmettes and floral motifs on a deep red/maroon ground. Flanking this are narrower guard borders, adding layers of intricate detail. The hand-knotted wool pile, characteristic of Malayer weaving, is durable and soft, offering a timeless texture.
High-Quality Wool & Enduring Appeal
Crafted with traditional hand-knotting techniques, this wool rug is a testament to the enduring quality and artistry of Persian textiles. Its antique status from the 1930s, combined with its good condition, makes it a valuable and practical addition to any interior, promising to last for generations to come. The natural dyes have mellowed beautifully over time, imbuing the rug with an authentic patina and a warm, inviting charm.
Versatile Beauty for Refined Interiors
Measuring approximately 7 feet 1 inch by 4 feet 8 inches (215 cm x 143 cm), this antique Persian Malayer rug is perfectly sized to enhance a variety of spaces, from a living room seating area to a dining room or a spacious entryway. Its elegant all-over floral design and rich color palette make it an ideal complement for traditional, classical, transitional, or eclectic interiors, offering both timeless beauty and a unique artistic statement.
