This antique 1930s Malayer rug is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian village weaving distinguished by its dramatic stepped medallion composition and richly drawn floral geometry. The saturated blue field is framed by an intricate border and softened by beautifully aged ivory, rose, and muted earth tones that showcase the character of hand-knotted craftsmanship. Its refined yet expressive presence makes it an ideal accent for a living room, bedroom, or office.
Faded warm tones of blue, ivory, rose, taupe, rust, sage, and brown, with a blue field.
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.
