Sarab / 11223

This Sarab is an antique rug in wool, defined by a stepped mihrab and small central medallion set into a dense, repeating boteh field. Floral guard borders in ivory provide measured contrast to the muted green, neutral and brown colourway, which shows gentle abrash and an intact, softly worn pile. The composition reads as both disciplined and tactile, a quietly time-worn example of late 19th-century weaving. Circa 1920 - 1935. Exact size: 262 x 409 cm. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
