This Caucasian antique rug measures 91 x 290 cm and has a calm, weathered presence, with a light ground bordered by geometric bands in cream, brown, faded red, and muted gold. The long, slender composition is organised around stepped diamonds and star motifs, creating a steady tribal rhythm across the field. Medium wear has softened the design, with pronounced fading through the centre and a tactile, timeworn surface that reads clearly in the wool. Circa 1900 - 1920, it balances restraint and ornament in a way that feels distinctly enduring.
