Oversized Antique Axminster Rug in Camel with Floral Patterns

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1850-1860, this 15x26 antique axminster rug is an extremely rare collectible English palace rug—an exciting new oversized addition to our European rug collection. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will note an inspiration from antique Persian rugs, particularly that of Isfahan rug sensibilities, in the all over floral patterns of the field and border alike. Camel tones of beige-brown underscore the series of palmettes, herati (or “fish” patterns), and other elegant, regal illustrations. Keen eyes will further admire an emphasis of orange, green, and light blue tones among the many hues at play. The sheer variety of colors and attention to scale alone are those of a masterpiece, and a considerable feat for works of this size. It’s an exceptional find among mid-19th century European rugs of Oriental influence—known to yield some of the most interesting and sought-after pieces among connoisseurs in our field. Condition: This antique European palace rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
