Light Blue and Gray Persian Malayer Rug 48983, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rugs, Circa Date: 1900 – True to many exotic Malayer rugs, this Persian masterpiece relies on a uniform pattern and an elegant degree of contrast to draw attention across the various points of interest. Here, the complicated borders feature swirling lines and flows within their depths, the slight color variations creating just enough difference between the elements to stay in theme while leading the eye along the unified points of interest. At the heart of the antique rug, a deep, dark blue background acts as the perfect setting to the multitudinous petals and blooms that stand out in a series of symmetrical arrangements around the piece.
