Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, Turkey, Circa 1900 – This superb antique Oushak carpet radiates elegance with its tasteful botanical decorations and sumptuous palette of neutral hues. These soft, earthy neutral colors are one of the secrets behind the enduring popularity of Oushak rugs. The subtle neutral color palette also has the convenient traits needed to flatter lighter interiors or saturated, dark spaces. The sumptuous ecru field features gradient abrashed stripes that diffuse the contrast between the warm background and the cool botanical motifs. The expansive composition centers around an understated rectilinear medallion that is flanked by platinum gray botanical motifs that are linked by inconspicuous vine scrolls. These lavish, understated decorations create a tasteful, unobtrusive pattern that is cohesive and promotes harmony between design elements within a space.
