European / 11224

A restrained European wool rug defined by a solitary, stylized sphinx-like head rendered in linear brown and cream bands. The warm cream field displays soft abrash and a narrow inner band of muted rust dots, all set within an interlocking geometric key border in tan and brown. Medium distress and a gently worn pile lend a tactile, heritage-worn presence that reads as quietly modern and handcrafted. Circa 1930 - 1945. This antique rug measures 8' 0" x 9' 2" and rewards close study for its pared-back composition, material warmth, and subtle surface texture.
