Yazd / 23145

This Yazd antique rug measures 10' 4" x 16' 3" and presents a layered field of floral scrolls, circular medallions, and richly worked borders. The palette balances neutral, white, and cream with deeper burgundy, faded teal, and muted blue, creating a luminous, time-softened contrast across the surface. Medium distress lends visible abrasion and a washed patina that quiets the ornament without diminishing its intricacy. Circa 1940 - 1960, the composition feels expansive and deliberate, with a heritage-minded character that remains clear in its border articulation and tonal depth. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
