A rare square size antique Malayer rug woven around 120 years ago, the soft pink tones with pale blues and greens are delightful. As is the vase and bird design in the main field, known as the famous Zil-e Sultan design. Zil-e was the eldest of the Shah of Persia around 1840. The son was not in line to the throne so he designed his own royal symbol which is the repeating bird and vase design we see in the centre of this rug.
Gorgeous muted colours and in fair condition, it does have lower areas of pile in places but still a durable and highly decorative square antique rug. Supplied with our anti-slip underlay, this helps add body and strength to a rug, thus preventing further wear.
