All of our antique & vintage rugs are professionally cleaned prior to being listed ENJOY! Name: MAGNIFICENT Antique Rug | THE QUEEN of Antique Rugs! Pastels with Every Color & Detail Size: 10.8 x 14.3 Age: Antique C. 1920's Pile: Low/Med. Some age-related wear & character-rich patina that is to be expected, some minor ancient repairs that are responsibly done & overall in fabulous condition for age. About this rug: We have named this piece Madonna for a reason - this piece is truly iconic. To think about what it took to weave this rug gives me the chills. Every single knot is masterfully tied around a couple of strings of foundation & then topped with a row of weft zig-zagging above the row of knots then beat down to tighten & condense all of the knots, foundation, & weft together only to start that process again, & again; nearly a year later you get this beauty. Such detail in every single square inch, & a relentless demand for quality in each knot. Moments of blooming flora, growing trees inside of Mosaic arched Merab-inspired Architecture, dancing vines, moving branches with both jagged & rounded leaves sprouting from them, rows of connected flower-heads create one of the many guard borders, & we haven't even scratched the surface. The color palette is a masterclass in softer hues that have aged over time, but even more astonishing than that is how the weavers have color-coordinated this piece to have several dozens of colors that fill each small motif that is packed inside this piece & yet still somehow make it unbelievably digestible for our eyes to take in - mindblowing. You really won't find another piece like this, a botanical needle in the haystack that is a true Ace card woven in the far North East from the greatest rug weaving the universe has ever seen. This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one available. Because of the nature & age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities & age-related wear are likely to exist & are not considered defects. Any questions about this rug? Don't hesitate to reach out! We always recommend a high-quality custom cut pad for any & all rugs; these pads are made for hand-knotted rugs. They create a body & support the knots of the rug, as well as prevent it from slipping & sliding. A note from us to you: Buying a rug is special; it's not just you finding the rug, but also the rug finding you. Think about the many coincidences that have to occur for you to find the rug of your dreams. Our rugs are woven by nomads in the villages & remote mountainous regions of the major rug weaving districts across the world. All of our rugs are genuinely old & one-of-a-kind. Like anything old & unique, they are filled with character, soul, & story. The story of a rug is something we think about a lot; who was the weaver(s)? Did they weave it for personal use, commerce, to gift, or trade? Who was the second owner, & the third!? Sometimes the little motifs & symbols in rugs can help tell the story, but we will never
