Ghiordes / 21407

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 9' 10" x 13' 6" and presents a quiet, time-softened field of ivory, cream, and muted rose. Vertical bands of floral and geometric ornament drift across the surface, with the border definition largely absorbed into the wear. The wool pile shows pronounced age, with fading, abrashed variation, and a mellowed hand that gives the piece its layered depth. Circa 1900 - 1920, it carries the restrained elegance and textural understatement that define a well-worn antique rug, offering a composition that feels both spare and richly lived-in.
