$11,500.00

Red Antique Besserabian Allover Geometric Flat Weave Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of besserabian weaving showcases the dramatic scale and bold red color palette characteristic of late 19th-century Eastern European textiles. The design, while technically geometric, utilizes highly stylized Tree of Life motifs, creating a powerful visual rhythm that is both traditional and strikingly modern in its abstraction. The central field is dominated by a saturated, rich red hue, providing a vibrant backdrop for the contrasting motifs. This specific shade of red is highly sought after in these regional pieces, often achieved through natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over time. The striking use of darker accents provides necessary grounding and depth to the overall composition.
