Sultanabad / 13490

This Sultanabad antique rug measures 381 x 597 cm and is woven in wool with a richly layered field in red, neutral, and pink. Circa 1880 - 1895, it carries the expansive floral vocabulary associated with the type, with rosettes, scrolling vines, and a detailed border that holds the composition together. The colour has mellowed beautifully with age, allowing the motifs to read with softness and depth. Low distress and light surface wear contribute to an antique rug character that feels collected and settled, while the overall pattern remains clear and elegant.
