Woven with exceptional colours over 110 years ago, this beautiful Malayer rug is very fine and full of wonderful detail and rare dyes. The soft yellow dye for the large scale medallion, sits in-between the dark blue, almost black dyes. Malayer weavers loved using pinks and greens too, this rug has a lot of green in it, and the pink border is rich and adds a great balance to whole piece. A very decorative and elegant rug.
Malayer is a large village located between the major weaving areas of Hamadan and Sarouk in Northwest Persia. In Malayer and the small villages surrounding it, production was almost exclusively small antique rugs and runners made by individual weavers in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
