Bijar / 31208

This Bijar antique rug measures 3' 5" x 16' 0", with a long, formal profile and a richly layered field of floral and geometric ornament. The palette moves between rust red, teal blue, brown, ivory, and muted gold, creating a grounded contrast that feels both structured and worn-in. A narrow inner border and red outer border, dotted with rosettes and diamond forms, help frame the composition with clarity. Low distress leaves the design legible while softening the surface, adding depth and age. Circa 1885 - 1900, it carries the steady presence associated with a well-kept antique rug.
