Antique Ushak Large Carpet Central Medallion

These magnificent rugs boast large, loose knots woven into luxurious wool that emanates a silky luminescent glow, all set upon a thick woollen foundation composed of warps and wefts. The motifs featured on these rugs are of grand scale, adorned with rich hues of reds and golds. The centrepiece showcases a large central medallion, surrounded by a captivating background filled with floral and geometric stylized designs.
Over time, some sun fading has become evident in the main field, a natural consequence that eventually culminates in an overall wear and tear across the entire rug. The rugs' age and origin can be traced back to an era when early chemical dyes were utilized, as opposed to the traditional soft madder and saffron, hence its age and generation.
