Antique Oversized Malayer Persian Knotted Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1920s. This magnificent example of early 20th-century weaving originates from the region surrounding Hamadan, placing it firmly within the tradition of Iranian / Persian rugs. The Malayer style is renowned for its exceptional wool quality and the sophisticated balance between village geometry and urban floral density. The commanding field of this piece is defined by a saturated, near-midnight indigo, providing a dramatic backdrop for the sprawling, all-over Herati-inspired design. The use of rich saffron and ochre tones creates a luminous contrast, highlighting the intricate vine work. This striking palette makes it a superb example of blue color rugs that can anchor a sophisticated interior space.
