Antique Sumac Character-Rich Rug, c.1900's

About the Item

Antique Sumac Worn, Distressed and Character-Rich Rug About: Older than you think, perhaps turn of the century or even last quarter of the 19th century - this piece dazzles our eyes with its patina and charm - so much character from pieces this old. You can see the story in each square inch - natural goat hair poking out of the rusty and clay-like autumn field color, only to be interrupted by the duel navy medallions that of course have their own quicky elements in each linear inch. Fantastic running water motif around the perimeter honoring god's gift to earth, water. Deep espresso-like volcanic ash black anchors the piece and gives it some nice body. Antique beige and eggshell creams lighten it up to counter the deepness - and then even the muted tangerine pops up as one of the highlights colors throughout the stars and pinwheels in this piece. Truly an old beauty, with much more life to give! Instantly richen your space with a century-old+ piece to sit and watch over the other elements in the room.
