Marbediah, Israel, Early 20th Century – Created in Israel, this antique Marbediah rug features a striking combination of fiery aniline red paired with accents in cobalt and ivory. Repeating medallions with club-like extensions that extend off the field complement the geometric background pattern, which is comprised of small-scale repeats and floral motifs flanked by arching swags.
