Ghiordes / 23346

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 124 x 183 cm, presenting a prayer-niche composition enriched by layered floral borders and a softly weathered field. The palette moves through faded red, sand, ivory, sky blue, brown, and charcoal, creating a calm contrast that has mellowed with age. A stepped arch form rises through the centre, while the surrounding borders hold the design in a measured, architectural frame. Circa 1880 - 1900, this antique rug shows visible wear, softened colour, and an aged surface that adds quiet character without losing the clarity of its pattern.
