Kerman / 10823

A large Kerman rendered in a muted neutral colourway, this wool example centres a pale medallion within soft cream fields and layered foliate borders. Years of wear have produced pronounced abrash and a flattened, time-softened surface; the detailed floral borderwork is gently attenuated rather than lost. High distress lends a restrained heritage patina, the palette reading as cream, dove grey and biscuit. This antique rug is offered at 389 x 724 cm and retains a quiet, architectural poise despite significant age. Circa 1900 - 1920. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
