Beige, Brown & Peach Caucasian Geometric Floral Medallion Rug 300 × 150 cm

A distinctive handmade Caucasian rug featuring a repeating arrangement of large octagonal geometric medallions, each incorporating stylised floral and rosette motifs. Multiple narrow patterned borders frame the design, giving the rug its strong traditional geometric character.

Warm beige and sand tones feature prominently throughout the medallions and border structure, complemented by a contrasting dark brown field, soft peach and salmon tones, cream and ivory, with smaller touches of olive and khaki. Handmade with a wool pile on a cotton foundation, this approximately 50-year-old rug has an authentic time-worn character that reflects its age, craftsmanship and history.

Measuring approximately 300 × 150cm, its long, balanced proportions make it particularly well suited to a hallway, entrance passage, open-plan transition area or alongside furniture in a larger living space. Its muted, earthy palette also works beautifully in farmhouses, safari lodges and interiors featuring antique, vintage or collected furniture.

Age, Condition & Refurbishment

The appeal of these approximately 50-year-old handmade rugs lies in their authentic aged character. Unlike a new rug, each piece carries the natural characteristics of decades of use, including areas of wear, variations in colour and texture, fading and other signs of age.

The degree of wear varies from rug to rug. Some pieces may display considerably more worn areas than others, and this is reflected in the individual rug's condition and auction pricing.

Each rug has been professionally cleaned and refurbished as far as reasonably possible, while preserving its original character and naturally aged appearance. Where required, refurbishment may also include repairs or restoration to areas such as the fringes, edges or foundation.

Refurbishment does not mean that the rug has been restored to an as-new condition. Areas of wear, previous repairs, variations in texture, fading and other age-related characteristics may remain visible and form part of the rug's individual character and appeal.

These time-worn handmade rugs are particularly popular in farmhouses, safari lodges, luxury tented camps and interiors featuring antique, vintage or collected furniture. Older rugs of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to source, making each one an individual piece with its own history, colouring, pattern and degree of wear.

Before Bidding

Please review all product photographs carefully before placing a bid. The photographs shown are of the actual rug being auctioned and provide the best representation of its individual condition, colouring and degree of wear.

If you prefer the uniform appearance and finish of a new rug, the naturally worn character of these older handmade rugs may not be suitable for you.

Additional photographs or videos can be requested should you wish to examine the rug more closely. The rug may also be viewed in person at Heriz Gallery, Unit 1, The Straight Shopping Centre, 78 The Straight Avenue, Fourways, prior to bidding.

Please note: Measurements are approximate due to the handmade nature and age of these rugs. Slight variations in dimensions, shape and symmetry may occur. Colours may also appear slightly different depending on lighting, photography and individual screen settings.

Each auction rug is a one-of-a-kind piece offered in its existing refurbished condition as represented in the product photographs.
