Antique Rug, Unusual, 3'4" x 6'6"

Offered by: Eli Peer Oriental Rugs

Description
A very decorative rug.
The Romanian Oltenia rugs were produced in the Southern Romanian province of Oltenia, these vibrant rugs are known for using predominantly strong colors such as red and blacks against green or sandy-colored backgrounds.

The Romanian Moldova rugs are much rarer than their counterparts from Oltenia and are known to feature floral motifs. Roses are particularly popular in Moldovian designs, but one can also find lilies, blossoms, grapes and leaves. The colors used in these Romanian rugs are often softer, with dark brown or light cream backgrounds. The geometric designs, floral motifs, and subdued colors make Moldovian rugs easy to spot.

The Romanian Maramures rugs were made in Northern Transylvania and often feature designs that borrow heavily from Oriental rug makers. Animals and flowers are common in the Maramures rugs from Transylvania, though some geometric designs can be found as well. The style of weaving used to produce these rugs allows for a beautiful two-sided display, rather than resulting in a rug where only one side is presentable.
