Early 20th Century Turkish Sivas Sand Handmade Wool Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
An early 20th century Turkish Sivas antique rug, the sand field with a delicate trellis design of scrolling vinery and scattered fleurons throughout within a spacious sand stylized palmette and fleuron border.

Decorative antique carpetsfrom Sivas in the southeast are finely woven and formal, tending to interpret the classical Persian style with central medallions and floral infill. A palette of soft and pale gelato tones in the typical antique makes it more feminine and sugary than other any other antique Turkish carpet. In the early nineteenth century, on the outskirts of Instanbul, the Hereke carpet workshop was established, becoming famous for producing exceptional, finely woven Turkish carpets of outstanding technical ability.
