Ghiordes / 24216

This Ghiordes antique rug measures 302 x 500 cm and presents a hushed, time-softened composition, with floral ornament diffused across a creamy ground. Faded rose, burgundy, and pale blue appear in the borders and pattern remnants, lending depth to the otherwise pale palette. The layout feels balanced and architectural, with an inner field surrounded by finely worked borders and floral detailing. High distress has softened the drawing and worn the surface into a gentle, matte patina. Circa 1890 - 1910. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
