Sivas / 12231

An elegant Sivas wool runner defined by a procession of octagonal medallions set within narrow, repeating geometric guard borders. Saturated red fields are tempered by cream and white panels, where subtle abrash and soft wear lend a warm, tactile patina. The composition retains clear motif definition and a restrained surface that reads as well-preserved, long-lived use rather than heavy repair. Circa 1900 - 1915. This antique rug measures 3' 0" x 11' 0", offering a linear, heritage-aware presence and a richly worked surface that rewards close inspection. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
