Hand-Knotted Sino-Oushak Area Rug
Item Details
A hand-knotted Sino-Oushak area rug. This plush wool rug is rendered in a palette of cornsilk, sapphire, and salmon. It features an Oushak-inspired design that begins with an allover harshang-like pattern of palmettes and vines spaced at regular intervals over a cornsilk field. Framing the field are six borders, including a wide primary border featuring rectilinear flowers and leaves alternating with a geometric box pattern over sapphire. The primary border is flanked on both sides by narrow floral guard borders grounded in pink or cerulean. Selvedges are overcast, the rug finishing at either end with long ivory cotton warp fringe.
