Antique Oushak Turkish Rug 42078

Antique Oushak Rug, Turkey, Late 19th Century - Large palmettes, leaves, and vines adapted from a Herati pattern sweep dynamically across the grayish-blue field of this stunning antique Oushak. The cool tone of the field provides an excellent backdrop for the varied apricot, red, and yellow tones of the floral elements. The rich terracotta ground palmette border adds the perfect framing effect, picking up on the terracotta palmettes of the field while contrasting the cool gray-blue ground.
