This Ghashgai antique rug, sized at 3' 6" x 4' 8", carries a layered geometric field anchored by stepped medallion forms and framed with narrow, patterned borders. Wool in muted blue, brown, and soft neutral tones has mellowed into a weathered palette, where abrasion and fading lend the surface a quiet depth. The design feels compact yet open, with small-scale details gathered around a robust central rhythm. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the expressive, utilitarian grace that gives old Ghashgai weaving its lasting character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
