Luri rug, early 20th century
Measurements: 164cm x 92cm (5’4 x 3’)
56 Knots per inch
Price: £1,300
This is a busy little rug full of interest. Three vases decorate the central spine surrounded by geometric and floral motifs. There are a number of figures on the rug, one in each spandrel and a small family in the main field. The colour palette is unusual with a dark red, gold and a bright green.
The borders are simple and inobtrusive which allows the main field to blossom with its lively scene. This is a very tidy little rug with good pile and no issues, unusual for an antique piece.
Condition:
Very good with full pile and good sides and ends. There is a little corrosion to the brown field as expected and some re-piling.
