Antique Oushak Rug, Turkey, Early 20th Century – Solid carmine borders frame the warm saffron yellow field creating a distinctly modern air that sets the tone for this innovative antique carpet. Deeply serrated palmettes with detailed outlines woven in a combination of bright colors embellish the latticework vine scrolls. Ivory outlines highlight the celadon tendrils while crimson, blue, ivory and Kohl black palmettes are offset by the sunshine yellow field. An intimated medallion formed by intersecting palmettes creates a vibrant focal point for this antique Oushak carpet. This exceptional rug features a timeless composition with uniquely modern qualities that are prized among Turkish weavings.
