Oversized Antique Irish Donegal Rug, Autumn in Ireland
By William Morris (English)
Located in Dallas, TX
73478 Antique Irish Donegal Rug, 09'10 x 18'07. Evoking the essence of autumn in Ireland, where expansive boglands transition from verdant greens to the resplendent hues of rust and russet, Irish Donegal rugs draw inspiration from the breathtaking beauty of the Irish landscape. The appellation "Bloody Foreland," or "Cnoc Fola" (The Hill of Blood), finds its origins in the evening sun, casting a rich red hue upon the coastal rocks. In autumn, the hillside becomes a fiery canvas, adorned with a dense layer of ferns ablaze in russet-red-brown. Despite the absence of a historical foundation for the "bloody" name, local folklore weaves a tale of the notorious warlord "Balor of the Evil Eye," purportedly vanquished by his grandson Lugh Lamh Fhada on the slopes of Cnoc Fola. Legend holds that the hillside earned its name from the imagined blood flowing from Balor's malevolent gaze staining the land. Infused with the cultural richness and natural allure of Donegal, this oversized antique Irish Donegal rug, meticulously crafted with high-quality wool, emerges as a mesmerizing embodiment of woven artistry. Drawing inspiration from nature, the Donegal rug boasts opulent earth-tone colors that converge to create an air of stately decadence. Against a backdrop of red ochre hues, an intricate pattern unfolds, intertwining botanical forms and geometric shapes. The design is framed by a border adorned with floral leaf lattice, enclosed by floral meander and sawtooth guard borders. With its relaxed refinement and an earthy color palette drawn from the natural world, this palatial-sized antique Donegal rug exudes a wealth of character. Rendered in variegated shades of rosewood, redwood, clay pot, brick red, terra cotta, mauve, baked clay, tan, ecru, chamois, camel, taupe, brown, espresso, coffee, sand, and beige with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Ireland. Measures: 09'10 X 18'07. Hotel Lobby Size Carpet 10 x 19 Rug...
