3339 · 6'9" x 9'10" Persian Malayer Area Rug

Tan and salmon palmettes make a charming lattice on the navy hexagon at the center. Navy fills a large stepped hexagon at the center, covered in a close lattice of tan and salmon palmettes, small diamonds and teal leaves. Tan ground surrounds it, with dainty sprays of salmon, blue and olive blossoms in the four corners. The main border is tan, carrying a scroll of salmon and blue blossoms. Narrow guard stripes in blue edge it on either side. The pile is low in places, and pale specks show where the weave comes through. Two near-black patches break the navy, one at the lower point and one in a band across the middle. On wood floors, the tan border warms the deep blue center. At 6'9" by 9'10", it fits a living room with the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, or beside a queen bed.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
