Antique Turkish Oushak

This stunning antique Turkish Oushak from the late 19th Century bears a remarkably sophisticated palette of soft colors such as taupe, silver, mocha and cream. The floral designs of the border and cornices reach inward to form the elegantly scalloped outline of the supple central field. At its center floats an understated, stretched floral medallion with refined, laurel-leafed palmettes on opposite ends. A broad border contains a repeated pattern of complementary palmettes paired with flowering blossoms and branching floral motifs. The exquisite design, understated palette and refined elegance of this antique Oushak make it uniquely qualified as a masterpiece in Turkish artistic craftsmanship.
