European / 10824

This European runner reads as a study in warm golds and refined ornament. A procession of floral cartouche medallions and delicate rosettes runs the length of the design, set within a narrow foliate border. The wool pile retains a soft, tactile surface and even low distress that reveals a warm, lived-in patina. The composition feels architectural yet lively, the motifs crisply modelled against a luminous ground. Circa 1900 - 1920. This antique rug measures 7' 7" x 47' 3" and offers a layered, heritage-aware presence that speaks to measured craft and time-worn colour.
