Kysari / 15147

This Kysari antique rug measures 373 x 498 cm and has a quiet, aged refinement that feels almost painterly. Woven in silk, the composition centres on a softened medallion, surrounded by faint border tracery and dispersed floral detail that emerges through layers of gold, cream, white, and muted rose. High distress and broad fading have mellowed the design into a luminous, timeworn surface with gentle tonal variation throughout. Circa 1850 - 1865, it reflects the understated elegance and layered character associated with the Kysari tradition in an antique rug of notable scale.
