Antique Oushak Turkish Rug 1471

Antique Oushak Rug, Turkey, circa 1900 - This sumptuous antique Oushak is exceptional by virtue of its meticulous, elegant drawing. A lovely see-through ogival medallion hovers at the center of the field surrounded by cornerpieces of undulating vines or branches. Cartouches and radial clusters of leaves comprise the border. The overall composition is unified by the consistent, harmonious soft coloration in pale apricot, sands, and soft cocoa.
