Sivas / 10193

This Sivas carries a gentle, worn lyricism: a scalloped central medallion set into a pale cream and blush field with teal-green foliate ornament. The borders form cartouche panels and floral arabesques, softened by consistent fading and subtle abrash. The surface shows medium distress and mellowed rims that emphasise the rug’s lived-in texture and wool character. An antique rug with an understated, painterly palette, sized 295 x 371 cm and showing delicate colour transitions and even wear throughout. Circa 1895 - 1915. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
