Description
This exceptional early 20th-century Persian Malayer camel hair rug is offered in an impressive gallery or oversize format ideal for corridors, entry halls, or expansive interiors. Handwoven circa 1900, the rug features an open rust-toned field adorned with a classic Herati medallion and corner spandrels, each set against a deep navy background, offering a bold yet balanced focal point.
The primary border showcases a stylized geometric motif in blue, green, red, and cream, elegantly offset by a wide camel hair guard border that softly frames the entire composition. The rug's natural wool fibers and subtle color variation lend a beautifully aged patina, imbuing it with warmth, depth, and character.
