Kerman / 12950

This Kerman antique rug measures 9' 9" x 16' 9" and presents a refined floral field softened by time. A formal central medallion sits within a cream ground, while the border carries saturated blue ornament framed by pale tan and white. The drawing remains articulate, yet the surface has settled into a quieter, well-worn register with medium distress and gentle tonal variation. Circa 1915 - 1940, it carries the layered elegance associated with Kerman weaving, where detail, balance, and restraint meet in one composed field. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
