Distressed Vintage Persian Malayer Rug
8'9" x 12'4" | 267 cm x 377 cm
OVERVIEW
This exceptional Persian Malayer rug, crafted circa 1940s, is hand-knotted wool on a cotton foundation with a low pile/shaved texture. This piece features a sophisticated palette of beige and powder blue, with taupe and cream accents creating depth throughout the design.
COLORS & DETAILS
The field features a beige base with subtle powder blue accents. Taupe details define the geometric patterns, while cream highlights emerge in the border elements.
PHOTOGRAPHY NOTE
Our product photography preserves absolute authenticity - studio photographs capture the rug's true colors, while our showroom lifestyle images, captured in natural sunlight, carry a warmer tone. We believe in presenting our pieces exactly as they are, without digital enhancement or retouching.
CONDITION
This vintage treasure has been professionally cleaned and prepared for its new home. As with all handcrafted vintage pieces, subtle variations in pattern and texture speak to its authentic character rather than serve as imperfections. Any delivery creases will naturally settle within days of laying flat. We recommend allowing the rug to breathe in fresh air (and gentle sunlight if possible) for a few hours after delivery, as organic wool benefits from this natural conditioning process.

Heritage and Craftsmanship
The Malayer region is renowned for its distinctive weaving tradition, producing rugs that combine geometric precision with tribal artistry. These pieces are celebrated for their intricate patterns and sophisticated color palettes, reflecting generations of artistic excellence.
Design Elements
The design features a central diamond medallion surrounded by an elegant all-over pattern characteristic of Malayer weaving. Small floral motifs are arranged in a precise diagonal lattice formation across the field. The main border showcases a continuous series of floral medallions, symbols of protection and prosperity in Persian tribal artistry. The natural aging process has created a refined monochromatic palette that enhances the rug's sophisticated geometric character.
Placement
The 8'9" x 12'4" dimensions make this rug ideal for anchoring living rooms, dining spaces, or master suites. The serene palette of beige and powder blue creates an atmosphere of refined elegance, perfect for both traditional and contemporary settings.
Care Recommendations
To preserve the rug's beauty:
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
Malayer rugs are prized for their exceptional craftsmanship and refined designs. These pieces combine durability with artistic sophistication, creating enduring works of art that enhance spaces for generations.
