Beautiful Small Scatter Size Tribal Antique Persian Malayer Rug , Country of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rugs, Circa Date: 1920 – Though as vibrant as any other stunning antique Persian Malayer rug, the artist chose to establish angular motifs and strong lines to convey a clear sense of grounding within the piece. These lines are evident in all sections of the antique rug, from the borders to the central elements, which results in a link-like effect that leads the viewer’s attention from one staunch element to the next. Bronze, gold, peach and blue colors define the palette, establishing enough contrast where it is necessary to create more vibrant points of contact, particularly at the heart of the antique Persian rug, where the blue tones are at their most defined as the background of the surface. Standing against the night-like blue landscape of this beautiful small scatter size rug is a magnificent gold mandala, itself housing several bright and exquisitely rendered leaves that add detail and activity within.
