This Esfahan antique rug, measuring 305 x 488 cm, carries a formal floral composition on an ivory ground, enclosed by layered borders in deep red, cobalt, and navy. A central medallion anchors the design, while scrolling vines, palmettes, and small blossoms move across the field with precise rhythm. Woven in wool, it has a considered, tactile character, with low distress and softly aged colour that preserves the clarity of the pattern. Circa 1925 - 1950, it speaks to the decorative refinement associated with Esfahan design, with blue and neutral tones adding depth, contrast, and quiet balance.
