Kerman / 14328

This Kerman antique rug, 358 x 488 cm, presents a softened palette of cream, beige and warm brown, lifted by pale aqua and muted teal floral notes. The design balances an open, faded centre with a delicately worked medallion and surrounding border ornament, allowing the worn field to read as part of the composition. Wool gives the piece a grounded, tactile quality, while the high distress level adds visible fading, tonal shifts and age-worn character. Circa 1940 - 1960, it reflects the restrained elegance and lingering floral detail associated with Kerman weaving.
