This hand knotted wool distressed vintage Turkish Oushak runner features large cabbage rose motifs arranged in quatrefoil bouquets spread across an abrashed field. Adopted by Turkish, Caucasian, and Persian rug-weavers from European designs, such as those of the Savonnerie rug workshops in France, the cabbage rose motif depicts a naturalistic overhead view of large roses in full bloom. In this particular Oushak rug, cabbage roses are nestled within large blossoms that are arranged in groups of four, creating a form reminiscent of open medallions. Curling tendrils, blooms, vines, leaves and small sprigs surround the quatrefoil lobes. Additional cabbage roses appear in the corner spandrels. The large main border also repeats the cabbage rose design in a Meander motif, with the roses surrounded by leaves, vines, florets and small blooms. A simple carnation Meander outer border frames the composition, adding a traditional and graceful touch. The bold color palette based around bright coral and chartreuse make the graphic floral designs really pop. Combined with intricate detailing used throughout, the overall composition has a unique painterly appearance. Blending tradition and modern sensibilities, this captivating vintage Turkish Oushak runner would bring a sense of exuberance and sophistication to any interior.
