Yellow Antique Oushak - Angora Turkish Allover Medallion Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional Turkish weaving represents the finest output of the late 19th-century Oushak looms, renowned for their grand scale and softened palette. It stands as a superb example among all antique rugs originating from Western Anatolia. The commanding field is saturated in a rich, deep tone, providing a dramatic contrast to the lighter shades of the wide border. Subtle secondary hues of yellow accentuate the stylized floral sprays and palmettes. The overall effect is a striking presentation of vibrant and neutral tones, making it an excellent choice for those seeking yellow rugs. While designated an "Allover Medallion," the design centers around a magnificent, highly stylized central element rendered in yellow, framed by elegant spandrels.
