Antique Kirshehir Turkish Rug 46678

Antique Yastic Design Kirshehir Turkish Rug, Country of Origin: Turkey, Circa date : Turn of the 20th Century – Drawn in a bold rectilinear style, this arresting antique Turkish Kirshehir rug makes a grand impression with its strong linear designs and repertoire of symbolic motifs. The dazzling crimson field is transected by graphic double S-hook vine scrolls embellished with secondary S-hook flourishes and contrasting outlines. Precise color variations create secondary figures within the modular pillar-like motifs, which cleverly fit together to create lozenges and counter change patterns. Dramatic powder blue and maize yellow running-water motifs border the intensely colored field along with decorative arched portals and auspicious duality symbols that portray age-old Anatolian icons in a graphic and artful manner.
