This Ghiordes antique rug measures 135 x 246 cm and offers a layered composition softened by age and gentle wear. An olive green centre grounds scrolling floral motifs and small architectural details, while the borders build in repeated geometric and botanical bands in magenta, cream, rust and muted blue. The surface shows low distress, with visible fading and edge character that lend the rug a quietly timeworn feel. Circa 1880 - 1895, it has the nuanced, heritage-rich presence of a well-kept antique rug, where pattern remains lively but the palette has settled into a more restrained balance.
