Khorasan / 10255

This Khorasan presents a dense floral field set against a neutral ground with a broad red border enlivened by gold highlights; an antique rug with refined, layered motifs. The all-over palmette and arabesque composition reads as considered and tactile, with low wear that preserves wool texture and reveals gentle abrash across the field. Borders retain crisp pattern definition while the palette has softened with age, giving a cultivated, mellow tone. Circa 1900 - 1920. Exact measurement: 701 x 770 cm. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
