Specialists generally assign the ‘Lotto’ carpets (also called ‘arabesque carpet’) to the group of ‘Uşak’ rugs. Furthermore, they subdivide the ‘Lotto’ carpets into three styles: the ‘Anatolian’, the ‘decorated’ and the ‘kilim’ style. The rug on this picture is an example of the ‘kilim’ style, because of the jagged diagonals of the pattern.
