Antique Ghiordes, Turkey, early twentieth centuryA wreath of naturalistic garlands encloses a central shrub or tree as a latent medallion on this delicate and stately antique Ghiordes. Small bouquets act as cornerpieces, while helical garlands make up the border. The soft neutral tones as well as the naturalistic rendering of the plant forms all seem to reflect the taste of European or western carpets like Aubussons or Savonneries, and like them this piece is supremely decorative.
