Afshar / 20908

This Afshar antique rug, 4' 2" x 5' 5", presents a bold field of repeating geometric medallions set within multiple patterned borders. Woven in wool, its brick red ground is animated by indigo, ivory, camel, and sage accents, creating a strong contrast with a slightly worn, time-softened surface. The design feels orderly yet expressive, with small floral and angular details lending rhythm across the whole composition. Circa 1900 - 1920, it carries the presence of age without losing clarity, and the fringe and field show the kind of honest wear that deepens its character.
