The Antique - Rio Grande Mexico Flat Weave Rug is an exceptional wool textile dating back to the early 1900s. Originating from Mexico, this rectangular flatweave rug represents a convergence of Southwestern and Northern Mexican weaving traditions. The design features a bold, high-contrast palette of fiery reds and crisp whites, accented by sophisticated purple and lavender tones from natural dyes. A distinctive sawtooth edge frames a central ivory field filled with complex stylized motifs, including abstract figures and geometric patterns. With a low 0.25-inch pile height and a narrow, elongated format, this durable piece serves as both a functional hallway runner and a powerful work of textile art. Its organized grid structure and spontaneous execution make it a unique historical specimen for any interior.
