Antique Khamseh Rug 178x134cm

The field is dominated by a large stylised paisley motif, rendered in cream, brown, and terracotta. Within the paisley shapes are subtle bush or tree-like elements, possibly symbolising fertility, life, or tribal connection to nature. The composition is both bold and elegant, with a tribal structure and a painterly softness thanks to the muted palette.

A handsome geometric border in warm terracotta tones frames the design, anchoring the softer central field with rhythmic energy. The overall look is grounded and earthy, making it well suited to interiors that value both texture and cultural narrative.

The rug is described as low throughout, typical of antique pieces that have seen use and care over many decades. This is reflected in the price, making it an accessible entry point for collectors or designers looking for a genuine antique with visual impact and a story to tell.
