Kysari / 14516

This Kysari antique rug in silk, measuring 198 x 290 cm, carries a finely detailed field of floral scrollwork around a central medallion, all softened by time. Cream, muted red, and dusty blue-grey notes sit over a pale ground, giving the surface a gentle depth and a subdued glow. The border, with its repeating round floral forms, frames the composition without interrupting its rhythm. Medium wear and visible fading lend the piece an especially lived-in character. Circa 1900 - 1915, it speaks to the refined visual language often found in Kysari rugs, where ornament and restraint meet in quiet balance.
