1950s hand-knotted wool rug with silk highlights, ivory and blue, 118 × 200 cm

This vintage rug from the 1950s features an ivory field with pale-blue flowering vines, intricate rosettes, and sweeping navy leaves. Burgundy, soft green, and warm brown accents enrich the balanced floral composition. Silk highlights add a subtle sheen to the wool surface, introducing another layer of interest within the detailed pattern. The all-over floral arrangement creates movement across the field, with pale-blue vines connecting rosettes and scrolling leaves. Sweeping navy forms provide contrast against the ivory ground, balancing the finer floral details. Burgundy, soft green, and warm brown add warmth and quiet contrast. A coordinated floral border surrounds the field, echoing the interior pattern. Hand-knotted in wool with silk highlights, the rug has areas of low pile and age-related wear, giving it a softly timeworn appearance. Measuring 118 × 200 cm, it is suited to a bedroom, study, or intimate seating area. The rug's ivory ground and navy leaves provide colour connections for surrounding furnishings. Condition: Low pile with age-related wear.
