A really sweet small antique Sultanabad rug, with a delightful abstract 'Boteh' design in the main field. Woven with a deep indigo blue background, with subtle 'abrash' (term for dye change) which means the weaver used varying wool in blue. Over 100 plus years it has faded and slightly changed colour in places, which adds character and depth to the blue colour. The minor borders of gentle yellow and warm red work well to balance the overall appearance and creates a lovely rare antique rug.

Also on one of the images you can see a stencilled number in white on the back of the rug.  This is an old Perez number, back in early 20th century the Perez company had a rug shop in London, they used to stencil these numbers on the back of their rugs when imported to their shop.  Quite a fascinating piece of history, we may come across an antique Perez rug a few times a year.

Contact us to arrange a visit to our barn showroom to view the rug up close, request a home visit - where we can bring lots of rugs for you to view in-situ. Or purchase online with confidence, as proud members of the BADA and LAPADA, we adhere to strict guidelines in the antique trade and our proud to offer our services to private customers and interior designers.
