Ravar Kerman / 19661

This Ravar Kerman antique rug measures 8' 6" x 13' 5" and presents a richly layered field of floral forms, cartouches, and a broad patterned border. Wool lends the surface a soft hand, while the palette moves between bordeaux, teal, taupe, cream, and brown, with visible fading that tempers the contrasts. The composition feels formal yet timeworn, with ornament settling into a calm, atmospheric rhythm across the ground. Circa 1915 - 1945. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
