Antique Malayer Persian Ivory 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Persian village weaving originates from the Malayer region, known for producing durable and highly artistic antique rugs. The structure is finely knotted, showcasing the high level of craftsmanship inherent in early 20th-century nomadic production. The foundation of this piece is particularly appealing, utilizing a warm, slightly striated ivory ground, typical of fine ivory color rugs. Rich terracotta reds, slate blues, and deep espresso browns define the palette, all derived from natural vegetable dyes that have matured gracefully over the last century. The field features a captivating, dense composition of stylized flora and fauna, characteristic of Malayer village work.
