Saddle Bag / 26046

This Saddle Bag antique rug measures 36 x 69 cm, with a compact, sculptural form defined by stacked bands and animated geometric patterning. Diamonds, small floral devices, and narrow borders run through a palette of white, cream, neutral, red, orange, yellow, and deep dark accents, while the strapped opening at centre reinforces its original utility. Medium wear has gently softened the surface, with visible edge character and an aged, tactile finish. Circa 1900 - 1930, the piece feels grounded and expressive, carrying the quiet irregularities and faded intensity that give woven objects their depth.
