An exquisite all over rustic design on this amazing green and pink faded antique Ushak carpet. The large all over open design is what makes Ushak carpets so desirable too, easy to place in a room and so beautiful to furnish with. From the late 19th century, the dyes are just stunning! Some minimal wear in places, but supplied with our underlay this would add strength to the carpet and stop it from moving on sisal, wooden floors, tiled floors and fitted carpet. Thus preventing further wear, as this generally occurs when carpets move around.
Ushak rugs and carpets were woven in the Anatolian highlands south of Istanbul where they used extremely soft wool and using the larger Turkish knot made them weave more open designs than Persian carpets. They are increasingly desirable today due to their sometimes softer palette than Persian carpets, thus making them easy to place in a drawing room or under a dining table.
