Antique Malayer Square Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1925. This exceptional square piece, originating from the Hamadan region of Iran / Persia, captures the rugged artistry characteristic of early 20th-century village weaving. The Malayer production often blends tribal durability with sophisticated urban design elements, resulting in a unique, highly sought-after aesthetic among antique rugs. The muted palette is dominated by a field of soft, oxidized wool in shades of taupe and faded brown, set against a background of naturally aged ivory and beige. The severe abrash and extensive wear contribute significantly to the rug's character, creating a desirable, almost painterly texture that speaks to a century of use and history.
