Esfahan / 10184

This Esfahan in wool presents an ivory field patterned with dense floral vines and palmettes, set within a deep navy and red floral cartouche border. The finely drawn arabesques and restrained palette, neutral, blue and red, read as a refined, tactile surface. Wool pile remains in low distress with a soft patina and subtle abrash that emphasize the piece's layered age. The scale and clarity of motifing retain a crispness across the 12' 0" x 16' 0" format while the border adds a composed edge. An antique rug that balances delicate ornament and quiet presence. Circa 1950 - 1970
