Antique Oushak Turkish Rug #44447

44610   Antique Scandinavian, Sweden, early twentieth century - The elegance of classical Turkish and Persian design is reborn in this refined, stately antique Oushak.  A scalloped medallion hovers at the center of the open tan field otherwise embellished only by vinescroll spandrels.  The main vinescroll border encloses the field and echoes its coloration although with a bit more red for added accent. In the classic Oushak tradition, the palette is cool and subdued, largely utilizing the effect of tone-on-tone. The lustrous pile adds the final touch of subtle elegance.
