Bakhshaish / 20319

This Bakhshaish antique rug measures 244 x 427 cm and carries a densely patterned field of geometric blossoms, repeated rosettes, and angular floral forms set within a strong bordered frame. The palette blends red, blue, brown, ivory, and purple, with subtle green notes and a softened, timeworn finish across the wool. The border provides crisp structure, while the centre reads with layered variation and gentle fading that speaks to age without diminishing presence. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the measured richness of a Bakhshaish, where ornament, colour, and surface wear settle into an elegant, grounded whole.
