A very beautiful Anatolian Ushak carpet in amazing warm colours. The condition of this carpet is exceptional with full pile throughout.
The design is very unusual for this type of carpet as it is an Indian Agra design from the 17th century - We have rarely seen this design used in an Ushak carpet, so it is likely that this was a bespoke order from a private individual, or maybe an importer who requested the design to be used.
The wool pile is thick and high throughout and woven on a woollen foundation this is a loose and floppy weave which is typical with rugs from this region.
