Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Allover Geometric 1890s Wool Blue Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional piece represents the finest traditions of tribal weaving, characterized by densely packed motifs and a rich, saturated palette. As a genuine antique rug, its history is woven into every knot, offering a tangible connection to the artistry of the late 19th century. Woven entirely from high-quality wool, the rug features a mesmerizing interplay of deep indigo and terracotta hues. The primary field color is a profound, almost midnight blue, which provides a dramatic contrast to the geometric medallions rendered in oxidized reds and browns. This depth of color is typical of natural vegetable dyes used by nomadic weavers of this period.
