Sarab / 11346

This Sarab runner measures 3' 3" x 18' 3" and presents a refined procession of lozenge medallions on a finely patterned neutral ground. The restrained palette of brown, cream and white is accented by muted, painterly fills that give each medallion subtle depth. Narrow, layered guard borders contain the central repeat while a broad tonal outer ground frames the composition. Low distress preserves clear motif definition; gentle abrash and a soft surface sheen lend tactile warmth. Circa 1900 - 1920, this antique rug rewards close inspection with quiet graphic discipline and evident handwork.
