Antique Turkish Sivas Rug, Country of Origin: Turkey, Circa Date: Turn of the 20th Century – Here is an exciting and delightful antique Oriental carpet of Turkish origin. This sublime and enchanting antique rug — a gorgeous Sivas rug woven in Turkey — is a profoundly beautiful piece that demonstrates the incredible aesthetic range occupied by the finest antique Oriental rugs. At first glance this elegant and reserved antique Sivas appears to have an open, deep salmon field surrounded by a richly detailed classical arabesque border. But a closer look reveals a delicate, tiny honeycomb pattern in the field that animates the salmon tone and plays off of the finely detailed texture of the border. This regal carpet shows how it is sometimes true that less can be more. An exquisite work of art, this rug offers a unique opportunity to bring genuine work of art into your home. Among antique Oriental rugs and carpet, antique Sivas rugs from Turkey show their age better than almost anything else. These carpets are unique treasures.
