Ghiordes / 21023

This Ghiordes antique rug in wool measures 183 x 188 cm and presents a richly aged palette of deep red, cream, white, and muted teal. The allover floral lattice is softened by wear, with scrolling vine sections and small blossom forms dispersed through the field in an easy, rhythmic composition. Visible fading and abrasion lend the surface a gently muted, lived-in character, while the design remains legible beneath the patina. Circa 1905 - 1920, it balances structure and softness in a manner that feels both grounded and expressive, with the tactile presence expected of an antique rug.
