Dating to circa 1900, it combines curling red stems, angular blossoms and crisp ivory highlights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasuring approximately 116.8 × 160 cm, the rug has compact proportions and a richly patterned surface. Pronounced wear forms an important part of its present appearance, including several pale areas of exposed foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Rhythmic Floral Lattice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLinked stems create a repeating network across the field, enclosing small curled leaves and geometric ornaments. Larger floral forms mark the intersections, introducing rust red, ivory and muted yellow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design continues across the centre without a dominant medallion. This repeated arrangement gives the rug a balanced composition while allowing individual motifs to vary in colour and drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDark navy provides a strong background for the lighter details. Soft pink and touches of green introduce quieter accents among the more prominent red and ivory forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBlue Borders and Ivory Bands\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA broad blue border surrounds the field with alternating angular flowers and branching forms. Some motifs resemble stepped leaves, while others open into pointed, star-like blossoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarrow ivory patterned bands separate the principal sections. Their small geometric details provide a bright contrast to the darker field and blue border.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA burgundy outer edge completes the frame. The slightly irregular outline and worn finishing remain visible around the perimeter, rather than forming a perfectly straight rectangle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWool and Surface Texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wool pile is low and uneven, with noticeable differences between better-preserved sections and heavily worn areas. In several places, the loss of pile exposes the underlying foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese pale patches interrupt the dark field and remain visible from a distance. They are substantial condition features, not simply colour changes within the original design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOther sections retain enough pile to show the floral drawing clearly. The contrast between these surfaces gives the rug a strongly timeworn appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoticeable age-related wear, with low, uneven pile and several pronounced worn patches exposing the foundation within the field. The ends are frayed, the side edges are worn, and the outline is slightly irregular.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rug is offered with these condition features clearly disclosed. No restoration history or structural assessment has been established.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiven the exposed foundation and worn edges, decorative display or very gentle use is preferable to regular foot traffic. Please examine the detailed photographs before choosing its intended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeriod: Circa 1900\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Wool\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Handmade, hand-knotted\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Approximately 116.8 × 160 cm; 3 ft 10 in × 5 ft 3 in\u003cbr\u003eDecimal dimensions: Approximately 3.83 × 5.25 ft\u003cbr\u003eDesign: All-over floral lattice with geometric floral borders\u003cbr\u003eColours: Deep navy, blue, rust red, burgundy, ivory, muted yellow, pink and green\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Pronounced field wear with exposed foundation, low uneven pile, frayed ends, worn side edges and irregular outline\u003cbr\u003eSKU: 1B1020\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy It’s Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe curling lattice and lively border offer intricate drawing within a relatively small format.
