Nepalese rug — 240 × 150 cm
Vintage handmade oriental wool rug, featuring a delicate salmon pink open field and a refined floral border. A unique piece full of history and character.
This vintage oriental rug captivates with its understated elegance and clean design. Its open field, bathed in a soft, slightly faded salmon pink, reveals the natural color variations (abrash) characteristic of hand-knotted pieces. Each shade attests to authentic craftsmanship.
The wide border frames the central field with a decoration of scrollwork, foliage, and stylized floral motifs in ochre, burgundy, and grey-green tones. This ornamental vocabulary recalls Central Asian textile traditions, likely of Nepalese origin. The original white fringes add a touch of light and confirm artisanal loom manufacturing.
The high-quality wool offers a dense and slightly shiny texture, pleasant to the touch. The generous dimensions (240 × 150 cm) comfortably cover a living space. This rug fits equally well into a contemporary interior or a more classic setting.
The overall condition is good. The colors remain vibrant and harmonious despite the patina of time. The fringes are complete and in good condition. No structural defects are visible.
