Dimensions: 4'4" x 6'6" (132 cm x 198 cm).
Circa: 1930.
This antique Malayer rug, handwoven in Persia circa 1930, is a one-of-a-kind village weaving with a richly patterned all-over field and crisp geometric border work. Its dark brown ground is enlivened by repeating boteh-like motifs in ivory, rust, and gold, with visible abrash and age-softened color lending depth and authenticity to the composition. A distinctive handmade accent with strong tribal character, it is especially well-suited for a hallway, entryway, or office.

Malayer rugs are woven in and around the town of Malayer in western Iran, within the greater Hamadan district. Comprising over a hundred villages each with its own subtle design traditions, the Malayer region produces hand-knotted rugs on a cotton foundation using the symmetrical Turkish knot — finer and more tightly woven than most Hamadan work.
Malayer designs tend toward the geometric, with herati, mahi (fish), and stylized floral patterns rendered in a traditional palette of deep indigo, madder red, and ivory. Their precise drawing, durable construction, and handsome proportions make antique Malayer rugs a consistently sought-after choice for collectors and decorators alike.
