This Ghiordes antique rug measures 102 x 173 cm and is arranged with narrow vertical bands, each worked with zigzag and stepped motifs alongside small floral cross details. The composition feels structured yet fluid, with cream and beige grounds interrupted by magenta, rose, muted teal, and taupe notes. Its low distress is accompanied by gentle wear and mellow fading, giving the surface a calm, lived-in softness. Circa 1900 - 1915, this antique rug offers a layered colour story and a subtle sense of age that remain especially compelling in close view.
