Antique Malayer rug, circa 1920, hand-knotted in Persia with a one-of-a-kind runner format and a distinctive diagonal field anchored by a geometric central medallion. The softly faded palette of ivory, taupe, camel, and pale sky blue gives this village weaving an airy, refined presence, while the detailed border and crisp tribal drawing showcase its collectible character. An ideal accent for a hallway, entryway, or office.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, taupe, camel, pale sky blue, brown, sand, and charcoal, with a taupe 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.
