Malayer Rug

1900 - 1920
Description

At first sight this looks like a classic Mazlaghan with its serrated diamond dominating the main field but the weave is finer and the presence of a strong synthetic red points to the nearby district of Malayer. The red has faded on the front to a pleasant hue, the wool is very shiny too which makes the rug come alive. The presence of abrash in the red background gives a really strong impression of depth with the red field opening out behind the central lozenge. It is also finely woven which makes for a well drawn design. This is an inexpensive rug with a classic look.

This is in good condition. It has synthetic colours throughout all of which have some fading and there is a small repair to the pile.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Malayer rugs are hand-knotted textiles originating from the town of Malayer in western Iran, renowned for their single-weft construction, geometric floral motifs, and varied, individualistic tribal designs.

These rugs are typically hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton foundation, coloured with natural vegetable dyes.

Authentic Malayer rugs feature slight asymmetry in their geometric patterns, a soft handle due to single-weft weaving, and subtle dye variations known as abrash throughout the pile.

A terracotta Persian rug anchors a room by introducing warmth and pattern; pair it with neutral modern seating, warm timber finishes, or minimalist furniture to balance the detailed geometric artwork.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar, rotate the carpet annually to ensure even exposure to light and foot traffic, and address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth.
