Antique Sivas Carpet

This is a beautiful pale antique Sivas carpet woven in central Anatolia, around the turn of the 20th century.  With a cotton foundation it allows for a finer weave compared to other Turkish carpets such as Oushak or Ushak. The design is classical and a Persian in influence, a delightful all over floral pattern connecting with vines. Ivory tones are common with Sivas rugs and allow them to be decorative floor coverings that work easily with many interiors. The muted border and background make it easy to furnish with, the gentle pink tones are used as highlights for the design.  Nice variation to the dyes, otherwise known as abrash. It has been professionally cleaned and photographed to show its true colours. Request a home visit to see this beautiful antique carpet in situ to see if it works with your interior.
