Antique Khamse Square Small Scatter Size Wool Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional piece represents the finest weaving traditions of the khamse confederation, known for their deeply saturated, natural dyes and robust, tribal designs. Woven entirely in high-quality wool, the pile exhibits a rich palette dominated by deep indigo and cerulean tones, making it a superb example of blue color rugs. Its compact Square dimensions classify it among small scatter size rugs, an ideal format for layering or highlighting a specific architectural niche. The field features a dense, rhythmic pattern of stylized geometric and animalistic motifs, characteristic of allover rugs. These repeating elements, rendered in madder red, ivory, and subtle browns, create a dynamic surface texture that shifts beautifully under changing light, showcasing the weaver's skillful use of color contrast.
