This Kysari antique rug, measuring 119 x 163 cm, is woven in silk with a gently aged surface and a refined, tactile sheen. The composition centres on a red field with an arched niche, slender columns, and delicate floral detailing, all enclosed by borders of repeating motifs in rose, navy, teal, and ivory. Its colour story has softened over time into blush, sage, and muted jewel tones, creating a nuanced, atmospheric presence. Medium distress lends visible wear and a relaxed clarity to the pattern. Circa 1900 - 1915. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
