Afshar / 16782

This Afshar antique rug measures 3' 0" x 15' 9" and presents a long, rhythmic field of layered geometric medallions set within a finely drawn border system. Woven in wool, its brown, red, and gold palette has softened into a grounded, aged register, with dark accents that hold the pattern in place. The composition feels ordered yet animated, with small floral and hooked details repeating לאורך the length. Circa 1880 - 1910, it carries the quiet irregularities and mellow wear that give an antique rug its depth and presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
