Ivory Cream Antique Floral Hand Knotted Wool Pile Rug

Wool 1890s Ivory Beige Cream White Antique Floral Medallion Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century weaving exemplifies the grandeur of classical Persian design. The central field is dominated by an intricate, large-scale medallion set against a luminous ground of ivory beige cream white. This light field allows the secondary colors—saffron, madder red, and deep indigo—to achieve maximum contrast and visual depth. The density of the all-over design is remarkable, featuring a complex lattice of palmettes, vines, and stylized blossoms that radiate outward from the central motif. This highly articulated composition is characteristic of sophisticated workshop production.
