European / 11280

A European wool rug defined by a serene sea-glass blue field punctuated with terracotta and cream motifs. Repeating stylised floral vases, small birds and folk-like figures form a rhythmic all-over register, while X-shaped medallions provide geometric anchors. The warm terracotta main border and narrow guard strand frame the composition with a folk sensibility. Low distress and a soft, tactile pile preserve a quiet patina that reads as age rather than damage; the surface shows subtle abrash and even wear. Circa 1910 - 1925. 7' 10" x 10' 7". This antique rug emphasizes craft, colour balance, and considered restraint.
