About the Item

The double niche design of this refined and elegant early Ghiordes rug descends from 16th and 17th century Ottoman court rugs of the Oushak and Transylvanian types. Here the typical configuration of the niche is transposed to create a coral pink open field that is dominated by an hexagonal medallion. This device is taken from the iconography of 16th century Small Medallion Oushak rugs, and distinguishes this particular type of Ghiordes. The botanical corner spandrels as well as the floral 'elmali' border ('apple in Turkish'), the latter consisting of a pair of pomegranates connected to a sickle leaf, are also characteristic of this group of rugs, which dates to the early years of the nineteenth century. The choice of a restrained palette imparts a textile-like aesthetic to the rug.
