A Larestan in a restrained neutral colourway, this wool antique rug pairs delicate pastel tones with an allover floral arabesque. The composition places scrolling vines and palmettes across an ivory ground, contained by a slim inner frame and a border punctuated by lobed motifs. Subtle colour variations and softened contrasts speak to measured wear that favours surface patina over loss. The woollen pile remains tactile and low in distress, allowing the pattern to read with quiet clarity. Circa 1890 - 1910. Dimensions: 246 x 292 cm. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
