In the early part of the 19th century, rugs from Asia made way into the western markets. This resulted in a major change in rug production, which involved abandoning the traditional designs and adopting a more western art deco look. This 19th century rug,34”x64" belongs to the period preceding this Art Deco period when Asian rugs still cherished the traditional patterns. Made up with two shades of red, the geometric rug captures the beauty of the geometric linework.
