Sultanabad / 13931

This Sultanabad antique rug measures 13' 7" x 20' 5" and presents a broad, softly faded field in blue-grey tones, surrounded by a saturated red border that still reads with clarity. Floral sprays, rosettes, and scrolling vine forms are arranged in a balanced, formal composition, giving the piece its classic Sultanabad rhythm. Woven in wool, the surface shows low distress, with age visible in the mellowed palette and gentle wear. Circa 1900 - 1915, it carries the quiet depth and collected presence that define a well-kept antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
