Dating to circa the 1910s, it combines symmetrical bouquets, curling leaves and a small central rosette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasuring approximately 142.2 × 106.7 cm, the rug brings a bold decorative pattern to a compact rectangular format. Deep blue flowers and dark outlines give the warm field a particularly clear, graphic appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBranching Floral Bouquets\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMirrored bouquets extend along the central axis, opening into clusters of rounded blossoms and pointed leaves. Slender stems connect these forms, with olive green and cream details distinguishing individual branches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA small rosette marks the centre without becoming a dominant medallion. Around it, larger flowers and leaf clusters create a balanced arrangement across the coral ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePale blue curved leaves soften the darker outlines, while dusty pink introduces quieter accents. The varied scale of the flowers keeps the composition lively without losing its underlying symmetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Broad Navy Floral Border\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main navy border carries oversized scrolling flowers and curling stems. Coral, pink, blue and green details repeat colours from the field, linking the frame to the central design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarrow floral guard bands separate the larger sections. Their small leaves and blossoms provide a finer pattern beside the broad border’s more expansive drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe strong contrast between coral and navy gives the rug definition from a distance. Closer viewing reveals smaller stems, delicate outlines and variations within individual flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWool and Antique Surface\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wool pile is low and uneven, with scattered worn patches revealing the underlying weave. Some floral details retain stronger pile, while other areas have a more reduced surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA folded-corner photograph shows the patterned reverse and closely worn end finishing. Pale foundation points and localised surface irregularities remain visible within the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAge-related wear includes low pile, scattered exposed weave and wear to the edges and corners. The ends are closely worn, with short fringe remnants and loose threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCorner fraying is visible, and the perimeter is not perfectly regular. These features are part of the rug’s present condition, rather than simply changes in colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo specific restoration history has been established. Gentle use in a low-traffic setting or decorative display would be preferable to regular heavy foot traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeriod: Circa 1910s\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Wool\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Handmade, hand-knotted\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Approximately 142.2 cm long × 106.7 cm wide\u003cbr\u003eFeet and inches: 4 ft 8 in × 3 ft 6 in\u003cbr\u003eDecimal dimensions: Approximately 4.67 × 3.50 ft\u003cbr\u003eDesign: Symmetrical floral bouquets and a small central rosette\u003cbr\u003eBorder: Broad navy scrolling floral border with narrow floral guards\u003cbr\u003eColours: Coral red, deep navy, blue, olive green, pale blue, dusty pink and cream\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Age-related wear, low uneven pile, exposed weave, worn edges and corners, closely worn ends and loose threads\u003cbr\u003eSKU: 1B1024\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy It’s Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vivid coral ground gives this rug an immediate visual presence.
