Antique Persian Malayer Carpet

The attractively abrashed field goes from sky blue to light blue and centers three slightly ragged open ivory lozenged medallions, with four open cartouches and rosette arrays set around. Multi-level stiff vinery. Cream narrow main border with reversing turtles and rose minors with botehs hanging from trapezoidal meanders. Medium weave, cotton foundation. Traditional Persian size. Good condition.

[Q. Is the field partially slate or medium blue? The images differ substantially.]
