Vintage Malayer Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa 1920 — Muted tones allow the presence of the forms in this vintage tribal geometric pattern Persian Malayer area rug to create distinct points of interest. Rigidly flowing motifs create attractive elements throughout the piece, with the sepia background colors creating decorative instances of contrast throughout. Several borders frame around each other, each bearing the same angular forms that all come together, one after the other, to lead the viewer’s gaze inward towards the core of the rug. At the center, the most pronounced instances of contrast occur, establishing an incredible degree of structure that grounds the other elements present throughout.
