Ghiordes / 19245

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 150 x 302 cm and carries a washed palette of neutral, red, white, and cream, with subtle muted blue and olive notes. The tall, narrow composition unfolds through a sequence of geometric and floral motifs, framed by a detailed border that remains readable beneath the wear. Medium distress has softened the drawing and dulled the contrast, giving the surface a gently aged texture. Circa 1895 - 1910, it expresses the layered ornament and understated warmth often found in historic Ghiordes rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
