Ghiordes / 19733

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 4' 10" x 10' 6" and presents a long, elegant field softened by age. A saturated red centre is framed by faded blue borders, ivory guard bands, and floral accents that read with quiet clarity despite the medium distress. The composition balances a stepped medallion, angular palmette details, and linear ornament, giving the piece a grounded, architectural rhythm. Circa 1900 - 1930, it carries the tactile surface and mellow colour shifts that make wool rugs feel especially lived in and authentic. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
