This vintage rug presents a striking peacock motif set against a deep black ground, with the bird rendered in layered white and cream tones that read almost sculptural. The long, vertical format, 8' 0" x 14' 8", gives the composition a quiet drama, allowing the elongated tail and gathered feather forms to stretch across the field. Subtle surface variation and visible age lend the piece an expressive, weathered character. Circa 1920 - 1935, it brings a restrained palette and a memorable silhouette to a room, balancing graphic presence with a soft, tactile finish.
