Beautiful and Decorative Antique Silk Turkish Kayseri Shabby Chic Rug, Country Of Origin / Rug Type: Turkish Rugs, Circa Date: 1900 – A lovely and elaborate motif spreads over this antique Turkish rug, focusing around an ornate ivory medallion. The circular figure in this beautiful Kayseri rug is ringed with petal-shaped points, making it a captivating star, further accented by a similar, smaller star over its center point. Looping curls of brown and minuscule details of flowers and leaves fill this starry form, describing a gentle floral pattern. Round and oval ornaments in alternating red and ivory ring the medallion, orbiting in perfect balance over the misty blue background. More winding vines form green and yellow decorations, their coils mimicking the star’s designs. Swaying fronds and delicate white flowers accent the stems. A compact red border, embellished with twisting, dark stitches around simple blossoms. A pair of ivory-backed bands complete the shabby chic rug, their widths rich with fantastical detail in a verdant array.
