Oushak 1417

A Turkish Oushak area rug  from the 3rd quarter of the 1800s.  The rug has the classic design of the Mamluk rugs from the 15th and 16th centuries.   The rug has a beautiful saffron yellow field. It has a small central medallion in blue/green and cream colors. The main border is in blue color. The rug has a very rich and shiny wool and because of this it is very difficult to capture its wonderful color and designs on photos.  Truly a beautiful small rug over 120 years old.   Mamluk carpets are characterized by a central, dominant octagonal medallion surrounded by a great variety of smaller, geometric motifs.
