1940s vintage wool medallion rug, red and navy, 206 × 320 cm

This vintage wool rug from the 1940s features a large stepped red medallion with an ivory floral centre. A deep navy field surrounds it, filled with rosettes, curling leaves and a delicate diamond lattice. Turquoise, pink, green and golden-yellow accents enrich the detailed composition. The stepped medallion gives the rug a strong central focus, with a red outline contrasting the navy ground and an ivory floral centre introducing a lighter point. Smaller rosettes and curling leaves create a flowing decorative rhythm, while a diamond lattice adds structure. Ivory floral corners brighten the composition and echo the lighter centre. A broad red border with scrolling leaves and ornamental flowers frames the field. The rug is made of wool and shows age-related surface wear, giving it vintage character. Measuring 206 × 320 cm, it offers generous coverage for a living room or dining area. The rug is in good overall condition with age-related wear.
