Ghiordes / 15786

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 5' 3" x 10' 8" and carries a layered, timeworn presence in wool. A central field of burgundy and teal geometry is set within multiple borders of floral and angular motifs, all softened by a luminous wash of cream and white. The palette reads restrained yet rich, with muted purple accents and visible fading that lends depth to the pattern. Circa 1895 - 1910, it reflects the balance of ornament and wear that gives an antique rug its quiet complexity, with a gently abraded surface and a composed, elongated format.
