Esfahan / 12423

69 x 79 cm, this Esfahan wool rug presents a pale cream ground with sky-blue guard borders and muted tan accents. A central vase and floral medallion extend into a scrolling vine field populated by palmettes and delicate sprays, the pattern traced in chocolate outlines. The wool fibre shows medium wear and soft abrash across the ground, lending a quiet, tactile patina to this antique rug; the fringes are gently frayed. The overall effect is refined and heritage-aware, a small-scale Esfahan with measured character. Circa 1960 - 1980 The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
