This Kysari antique rug measures 142 x 213 cm and presents a richly layered composition in deep red, neutral beige, brown, and black. A stepped central medallion grounds the field, framed by small floral motifs and a darker border of repeating compartments that adds structure and contrast. The silk surface offers a gentle lustre, while medium distress gives the rug a softened, lived-in presence. Its faded tones and lightly worn edges speak to age without diminishing clarity. Circa 1900 - 1920. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
