1. The Traditional Use of Antique Oriental Rugs on the Wall and Over Furniture Conjure Up Distant Lifestyles

The art of antique Oriental carpets stems from a milieu that valued the enlivening effect age-old patterns have on the psyche and emotions. The Asmalyk wedding trapping from the Central Asian Turkoman Yomut tribe on the right wall reveals a dynamic chevron pattern while the unadorned camelhair field of the small 19th-century Bakshaish rug draped over the ottoman in the foreground imbues a calm, earthy ambiance. The 19th century Persian tribal Afshar bag face on the far left wall adds additional interest.

2. Carefully Pairing Antique Rugs on Walls with Paintings and Photographs is An Art In Itself and Enlivens Any Vertical Display

Hanging Persian and tribal 19th-century weavings on the walls along with other art is rapidly growing in popularity, as it adds a dynamic, three-dimensional, tactile aspect to a wall display. This antique bag face from the Persian Afshar tribal group is fascinating to appreciate at eye level and is made even more intriguing by its juxtaposition to the pair of African animal photos.
