On the design: Almost reading with a gold accent in their grandeur, elegant floral depictions wrap between the outstanding green medallions with a natural sense of movement and depth against this particularly desirable red background—complemented by the palmette and rare cypress scroll patterns of the border for an elegant, regal look even standing out amongst celebrated Oushak rugs of this period. An iconic, masterful piece with dynamic movement and elegant air. See less
