Oversized Antique Axminster Rug in Blue with Geometric Pattern, from Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool and originating from England circa 1910-1920, this 13×20 antique Axminster rug is a rare masterpiece drawing on Voysey-era design aesthetics—an extremely collectible new unveiling from the European rug collection by Rug & Kilim. On the Design: Admirers of the craft and keen eyes will note the sheer variety of motifs and their unique orientation for a work of this period. The all over pattern is elaborate and meticulously detailed, with many subtle variations and a brilliant sense of movement therein. Its field and border background favors navy blue with midnight tones, while its patterns favor rust tones, brick red and beige-brown in their myriad of hues. Connoisseurs will further admire a nod to Qashqai rugs and similar Persian tribal rugs in this piece—beautifully adapted this large size and heavy, wooly look. It’s a regal and immersive palace rug, and for that matter a rare oversized rug one seldom sees from Voysey-style works in such condition today. Condition: This antique Axminster rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—in need of minor repairs upon purchase, already reflected in its current pricing.
