Nain / 12292

This Nain reads as a pale garden on wool, its cream field enlivened by muted green and soft blue details. The allover floral motif and repeated willow forms are framed by multiple guard borders, the overall effect delicate and measured. The wool pile shows medium distress and gentle abrash, a soft ageing that privileges texture and line over sheen. As an antique rug the piece retains a refined neutrality and tactile presence, recorded at 160 x 236 cm and presented with a conservative visual date estimate. Circa 1900 - 1920
