Camel and Turquoise Antique Persian Oriental Rug Cushion

If you are fond of the colour turquoise, this antique Persian Gabbeh Oriental Rug design pillow will not disappoint you. The design is simple, with a dark blue triangular medallion outlined in rose red, off-white, and turquoise. A camel-coloured field surrounds the centre medallion, and then the bulk of the lovely turquoise begins. There is a fun border, which consists of triangular flowers. The original rug that inspired this pillow was hand woven in the nineteenth century. The Gabbeh rugs were often used as sleeping rugs. Since the rugs were made for personal use rather than as commercial weaving, the designs are less influenced by commercial factors.
