Antique Oushak Salmon and Copper Geometric-Floral Wool Rug 10037

Hand-knotted in high-quality wool originating from Turkey between 1890-1900, this antique Oushak rug employs a rare asymmetry in its intricate borders and field design alike, both complemented by a variety of curvilinear beige and salmon pink floral patterns set against a brilliant copper background. The unique orientation of the lotus palmette patterns (widely believed to be a symbol of rebirth) is a striking, unique departure from traditional Oushak pieces, accented by a subtle, rich variation of red and blue colorway highlighting the many intricacies and versatility of this piece in a space.
