On the Design:
This mid-century piece enjoys diamond medallions in orange, black and green — motifs sometimes called lozenges in tribal vernacular. Traditional symbols in colorful accents on the field accompanying solid striped borders lend a lively touch to this classic, cultured piece. Keen eyes will further note a subdued hint of midnight blue in the black of this bold, graphic.
Connoisseurs will appreciate this tribal origin as one of the most primitive, and collectible shabby-chic styles in nomadic rugs. Exceptional Gabbehs like this creation are known for thick, lush pile, vibrant modern colors and archaic geometric patterns. An exemplar of rustic charm and folk art as much as handmade rugs, with versatile size and vast design applications.
A delicious piece in good condition for its age and origin.
