Antique Malayer Persian Allover Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1930 (Size Adjusted) BB6968 9'2" × 9'9" $43,000
$43,000
This exquisite 1930s Persian Malayer rug showcases the quiet elegance and artistic nuance that define the weaving tradition of the Malayer region in western Iran. Though this piece has been size adjusted, it retains the full essence of its original artistry—blending cultural authenticity with versatile proportions suited for modern interiors.
At the heart of the design is a repeating Herati lattice pattern rendered in warm earth tones—mocha, beige, taupe, and faded rust—creating a harmonious, nearly tonal visual rhythm across the field. The symmetrical diamond medallions subtly fade in and out of the background, giving the rug an almost textured, sculptural quality, enhanced by the hand-knotted wool pile’s natural sheen.
The borders complement the central pattern with a delicate layering of geometric guard bands and faded botanical motifs. The craftsmanship is evident in the precision of the weave and the durability of the materials—hallmarks of Malayer weaving.
The muted palette and aged patina evoke a deep sense of history while offering a sophisticated neutrality perfect for contemporary or transitional décor. Whether placed in a living room, library, or under a dining table, this rug balances refinement and rustic charm with understated grandeur.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
