Ghiordes / 24215

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 2' 2" x 11' 6" and carries a long, architectural format with a central neutral field framed by deep purple-red grounds. The surface reads as richly worn, with the original design softened into luminous bands and scattered abrasion that gives the piece its layered, tactile character. A narrow palette of beige, ivory, rose, and burgundy creates strong contrast while remaining quiet and restrained. Circa 1900 - 1915, it feels grounded in age and loss, yet still holds a compelling sense of rhythm and depth. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
