Yazd / 17817

This Yazd antique rug in wool measures 262 x 444 cm and presents an all-over floral composition with palmette motifs, repeating curvilinear forms, and a finely worked border. Neutral ivory is lifted by muted red, teal blue, and purple accents, while the worn pile creates a gentle, irregular softness across the surface. The design reads with clarity even through its visible distress, giving the rug a calm, atmospheric character. Circa 1950 - 1965, it offers a restrained yet richly layered expression of Yazd weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
