This Esfahan displays a calm, allover floral ground in ivory, arranged with scrolling vines and palmettes and set within a broad red foliate border with navy highlights. Woven in wool, the piece shows low wear and an even patina that accentuates hand-drawn motifs and fine colour transitions. The scale of repeat and border choreography gives the composition measured elegance across 437 x 521 cm. Circa 1950 - 1965. An antique rug with a composed, heritage-aware presence and a tactile, quietly aged surface. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
