A marvel of detailed craftsmanship, this antique Malayer rug (5.5 × 9.6 ft) showcases a beautifully dense Herati lattice — a traditional Persian motif featuring stylized rosettes surrounded by diamond-shaped leaves and fish motifs, all interlocking across the field in rhythmic precision.
The rug's rich palette blends brick red, midnight blue, ivory, and soft gold into a tapestry of earthy elegance. Delicate floral elements and subtle abrash (color variation from natural dyeing) add depth and charm, while the intricate border provides a strong, symmetrical frame that echoes the field’s complexity.
Ideal for anchoring a sitting area or enriching a study, this piece brings timeless refinement with a lived-in soul.
