European / 14101

This European antique rug measures 13' 3" x 16' 2" and presents a gracious, restrained composition in wool. A softly open centre is framed by scrolling cream borders with floral sprays, cartouche-like corners, and warm gold outlines that lend the surface a refined, painterly rhythm. The palette of neutral, white, cream, and gold is gently aged, with visible fading that softens the contrast and gives the piece its quiet depth. Circa 1920 - 1940, it carries medium distress and an elegant worn character that feels balanced and lived-in. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
