Crimson Cascade — Antique Malayer Rug (4.3 × 6.9 ft)
This antique Malayer rug (4.3 × 6.9 ft) unfolds in a hypnotic cascade of boteh motifs — symbolic seed-like forms often interpreted as flames, leaves, or eternal life. Arranged in a dense, staggered field, these motifs alternate in crimson, brick, and terra cotta against a deep inky ground, creating a richly textured visual rhythm that invites closer inspection.
The rug’s frame is equally dynamic, with multiple guard borders and a main border adorned in zigzag chevrons and stylized diamonds in cobalt and rust — hallmarks of Malayer’s masterful village weaving tradition. Its slightly abrashed palette and worn patina lend it the soulful depth that antique collectors and designers adore.
Ideal for warm, grounded interiors from study nooks to sitting rooms, where it adds both heritage and movement.
