This Heriz antique rug in wool, 213 x 323 cm, offers a resolute geometric medallion and angular palmettes rendered in rust, pale teal and navy. The field’s small floral motifs and stepped outlines are balanced by a serrated navy border punctuated with rosettes. Low distress preserves texture and pattern clarity, while gentle abrash and soft fading enrich the colouration with a layered, timeworn quality. The piece reads as both architectural and tactile, its wool fibre and deliberate geometry reflecting traditional handcraft with restrained wear. Circa 1880 - 1900. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
