On the Design:

This piece enjoys a mauve purple ground, which underscores large-scale floral medallions in chartreuse green—stylized lotus blossoms that admirers of the craft may recognize from Ottoman kemha (or silk brocaded pieces like those known to celebrate this design). Keen eyes for detail will further admire the skillful use of bright red, blue and white accents; a deceptively humble palette among those that lend this piece its particular brightness and presence. The silk's gentle, natural sheen further complements the sense of movement in the pagination of colors with a luxurious, elegant play of the light in any space, made to sit beautifully in any concept. It's a smart work that reimagines a time-honored, regal sensibility in a fabulous quality, among the iconic works of Jevremovic left today that speak to him as a brilliant atelier in handmade, high-end rugs.

Condition:

This vintage rug further enjoys great condition for its age and origin. See less
