Kerman / 14566

This Kerman antique rug measures 358 x 732 cm and shows a gently faded allover field of floral arabesques, scrolling vines, and a softened medallion axis. Wool gives the surface a quiet, tactile presence, while the cream ground is nuanced with brown, taupe, and muted sage tones. The border is still readable, though notably worn, lending the composition a framed and weathered cadence. High distress has softened the contrasts across the field, leaving an atmospheric, timeworn finish. Circa 1920 - 1940, it reflects the refined ornament and aged elegance associated with Kerman rugs.
