Kerman / 11252

This Kerman displays an expansive floral ground rendered in soft neutrals and cream on wool, its motifs of palmettes and scrolling foliage mellowed by age. The surface shows medium distress, subtle abrash and softened edges that lend the piece a lived, tactile quality; the design remains legible despite wear. Naturally an antique rug that balances detail and patina. Circa 1890 - 1910. Measurements: 274 x 373 cm. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded. The composition remains balanced, with its details softened into a calm, layered presence.
