Modern Turkish Oushak Style Carpet

The attractively abrashed pale blue-grey field shows a giant ashik and a large-scale radiating nine rosette/palmette motif, within a rough, erratic hexagonal trellis. The vertical stems from the top border to almost the middle sides of the field are particularly dramatic. Border meander with reversing little flowers. The delicate border barely contains the explosively vigorous field layout. Coarse weave. As new condition.
