Hand-Woven Late 19th Century Bessarabian Rug from Romania

About the Item

This traditional handwoven Romanian Bessarabian rug has an overall beige field of four by five delicate stylized floral bouquets, in a subtle paired stripe border. About Romanian Bessarabian Rugs: Romanian Bessarabian rugs are celebrated for their unique blend of Eastern European and Oriental influences, originating in the Bessarabia region, which spans parts of Romania and Moldova. Known for their distinctive flat-weave (kilim) style, these rugs often feature floral patterns, lush bouquets, and vine motifs set against dark, contrasting backgrounds, typically black or charcoal. The color palette includes muted earth tones like soft reds, pinks, creams, and browns, giving Bessarabian rugs an antique, rustic charm. These handwoven pieces are highly valued for their artistic appeal, blending folk art traditions with elegant, sophisticated designs ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors.
