This Sultanabad antique rug measures 262 x 361 cm and reflects the spacious, floral language long associated with the category. On a cream field, scrolling blossoms, palmettes, and small botanical motifs unfold in rust, blue, green, brown, and black, while the darker border adds contrast and structure around the centre. The wool surface shows low distress, with softened wear and a gently aged finish that deepens the tonal range. Circa 1900 - 1915, it balances delicacy and presence, offering a composed pattern with an easy, heritage-led palette. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
