This exceptional Persian Malayer rug, crafted circa 1940s, is hand-knotted wool on a cotton foundation with a low pile/shaved texture. This piece features a sophisticated palette of taupe and charcoal, with beige and ivory accents creating depth throughout the design.
COLORS & DETAILS
The field features a warm taupe base with charcoal geometric patterns throughout. Beige undertones emerge in the design, while ivory highlights define the medallion details.
PHOTOGRAPHY NOTE
Our product photography preserves absolute authenticity - studio photographs capture the rug's true colors, while our showroom lifestyle images, captured in natural sunlight, carry a warmer tone. We believe in presenting our pieces exactly as they are, without digital enhancement or retouching.
CONDITION
This vintage treasure has been professionally cleaned and prepared for its new home. As with all handcrafted vintage pieces, subtle variations in pattern and texture speak to its authentic character rather than serve as imperfections. Any delivery creases will naturally settle within days of laying flat. We recommend allowing the rug to breathe in fresh air (and gentle sunlight if possible) for a few hours after delivery, as organic wool benefits from this natural conditioning process.

Heritage and Craftsmanship
The Malayer region is renowned for its distinctive weaving tradition that combines tribal geometric precision with classical Persian motifs. These pieces reflect a sophisticated fusion of village craftsmanship and urban design elements, creating rugs of remarkable character and artistic merit.
Design Elements
The design showcases a central diamond medallion with a sophisticated all-over geometric pattern characteristic of Malayer weaving. The field displays a precise arrangement of small geometric motifs in a lattice formation, reflecting tribal influences. The main border features a series of stylized floral medallions, traditional symbols of protection in Persian tribal artistry. The natural aging process has created a refined monochromatic palette that enhances the rug's geometric precision.
Placement
The 9'2" x 11'12" dimensions make this rug ideal for anchoring grand living rooms, dining spaces, or master suites. The neutral palette of taupe and charcoal creates a versatile foundation that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Care Recommendations
To preserve the rug's beauty:
Rotate periodically for even wear
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting
Address spills immediately by blotting, never rubbing
Professional cleaning recommended annually
Avoid direct sunlight to maintain color integrity
Malayer rugs are celebrated for their exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive geometric interpretations of classical designs. These pieces combine artistic sophistication with remarkable durability, creating heirlooms that continue to enhance spaces for generations.
