Design Elements
The design showcases a central diamond medallion with a sophisticated all-over geometric pattern characteristic of Malayer weaving. The field displays a precise arrangement of small geometric motifs in a lattice formation, reflecting tribal influences. The main border features a series of stylized floral medallions, traditional symbols of protection in Persian tribal artistry. The natural aging process has created a refined monochromatic palette that enhances the rug's geometric precision.

Rotate periodically for even wear
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting
Address spills immediately by blotting, never rubbing
Professional cleaning recommended annually
Avoid direct sunlight to maintain color integrity
