Ghiordes / 21034

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 249 x 312 cm, presenting an allover floral lattice on a rich red ground. Cream, white, teal, pale yellow, and muted purple details temper the composition, while rosettes, vine lines, and small medallion-like forms build a dense, rhythmic field. The wool surface shows medium distress, with visible fading and abrasion that gently mute the pattern and add tactile character. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reflects the softened palette and timeworn elegance that define many antique rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
