Shirvan / 21971

This Shirvan antique rug in wool measures 117 x 160 cm and features a compact composition of stacked geometric medallions, small framed corner motifs, and a narrow border of repeating angular details. The palette is held in cream and ivory, lifted by faded blue, deep navy, and restrained rose, creating a calm but structured surface. Wear has gently mellowed the pattern, with visible fading and softened definition across the field. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the crisp geometry and understated rhythm often associated with Shirvan weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
