This Kysari antique rug in silk measures 190 x 284 cm, with a muted palette of cream, ivory, and pale gold shaped by age and wear. Its composed field is organised into panels of floral ornament, softened medallions, and a delicate border that frames the design without interruption. High distress has mellowed the pattern into a quiet, layered surface, with visible fading and scattered tonal variation adding depth. Circa 1880 - 1900, it carries the patina and restraint of a piece long lived with light and time. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
