Antique Persian Malayer Rug

Same size as 26903, but with a wholly different tonality. The more spacious straw main border show rust ashiks and acutely fringed triangular palmettes, while in the light brown field the octagons reside in octagons, the leaves are serrated but less grabby, and the two stars are flatter and broader. Lots of rust accent overall. Western Persian village weaving on cotton.
