Antique Sivas Rug, Turkey, circa 1900
A classic arabesque medallion pattern in soft red surrounded by a lush tangle of vines and flowers unfolds with consummate grace across the delicate blue-green field of this stately little antique Sivas. Diminutive vinescroll borders enclose the field, echoing its scale while providing just a hint of color contrast. Both the palette and the exquisite drawing of this piece combine to produce an effect of grace and harmony.
