3'4 x 5'1 Hand-Knotted Persian Malayer Area Rug

Item Details

This authentic hand-knotted Persian Malayer rug is a superb example of village craftsmanship from the mid-20th century. The piece features a richly saturated red field centered by an ornate, star-shaped medallion in cream and terracotta. Elaborate floral sprays and curvilinear vine-work fill the field, contrasted by dark midnight blue corners and a wide, formal navy border. Hand-woven using high-quality wool on a sturdy cotton foundation, this Malayer rug represents the sophisticated yet organic aesthetic that has made Persian textiles a staple of fine interior design for decades.
