Bakhshaish / 14749

This Bakhshaish antique rug measures 10' 8" x 13' 8" and presents a saturated red field animated by angular floral vines, stylised blossoms, and crisp cream outlines. A layered border in tan, cream, and muted blue frames the composition, adding rhythm without interrupting its open, expressive ground. Woven in wool, the rug has a grounded hand and a softly timeworn surface that feels balanced rather than fragile. Its low distress preserves the clarity of the design while allowing the age to read naturally. Circa 1900 - 1920, it carries the spacious geometry and ornament that define the Bakhshaish tradition.
