Ghiordes / 16293

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 3' 0" x 7' 3" and carries a layered, architectural sense of pattern that feels both formal and timeworn. A deep rose field is framed by floral and geometric bands in cream, sage, and muted gold, with a stepped central medallion that draws the eye through the composition. The borders are richly worked yet softly faded, giving the piece a lived-in clarity. Woven in wool, it shows low distress and a gentle patina that speaks to age without overwhelming the design. Circa 1880 - 1920.
