Decorative Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, Turkey, Early 20th Century – Bathed in a gentle orange sunlight with speckles of red and orange, the branches of trees can be seen among a morning dawn of colors. Ivory flower petals gently blow among a serene forest of autumn. Geometric designs remind us of the logic and ration in a world that otherwise suspends the mind and opens the senses. The dreamlike quality of this rug reminds us of the thin border between the dream world and the actual, real world that we stand in. A wash of deep orange and light tan swirls together in a marbled amalgam of dream and reality. A truly breathtaking piece with a unique history rooted in east Turkey.
