This Caucasian antique rug in wool measures 97 x 147 cm and shows a compact, rhythmic composition built from repeating round medallions on a dark ground. Rust red, deep navy, cream, and muted blue create a grounded palette, while the border layers diagonal stripes with narrow geometric framing and small accent motifs. The visible fading and abrasion temper the contrast and bring a softened, tactile surface. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the assertive patterning and honest wear that often define woven pieces of this character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
