European / 14101

This European antique rug measures 404 x 493 cm and offers a calm, formal composition in wool. An open centre field is enclosed by scrolling cream borders, floral garlands, and rounded corner reserves, all traced with warm gold and softened by age. The neutral, white, cream, and gold palette has mellowed beautifully, with visible fading that lends the surface a gentle, atmospheric patina. Circa 1920 - 1940, this piece shows medium distress and a quietly worn hand, giving the design a settled, heritage-rich presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
