European / 10924

A considered European wool rug in a restrained neutral colourway, the large central medallion and floral arabesques balanced by multiple guard borders. The surface shows medium wear and a soft patina; subtle abrash and a dulled pile have mellowed the design without erasing its graphic centre. The composition reads as an antique rug with an even, lived-in expression, where wool fibre and time have produced a gentle lustre and tactile depth. Circa 1890 - 1910. Measurements: 284 x 389 cm. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
