About the Item

77441 Late 19th Century Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, 12'06 x 32'00. Bathed in a golden warmth that conjures the splendor of Anatolian sunsets, this antique Turkish Oushak rug from the late 19th century radiates a quiet majesty rooted in centuries of artistic tradition. Its expansive field, rendered in a mellow saffron-camel tone, is softened by time and gentle wear—each thread a vessel of memory, each motif a whisper from the past. A delicate tracery of terra cotta, sand, and faded apricot dances across the surface in symmetrical flourishes, forming a medallion-spangled lattice that dissolves into the surrounding expanse like a mirage retreating into the horizon. The composition is a masterful balance of power and grace. Stylized palmettes bloom like sacred lotuses, their forms echoing across the field in rhythmic succession, while angular vinery and floral rosettes interlace in measured cadence. This formal harmony is anchored by a classical border—its scrolling arabesques and geometric motifs invoking the grandeur of Ottoman court weavings. The architecture of the design, at once complex and restrained, mirrors the serenity of its palette and the soul of its weaver. Hand-knotted with wool harvested from highland flocks, the Oushak rug's luminous pile shimmers with an inner glow, enriched by the passage of time and the alchemy of natural dyes. Subtle abrash lends movement to the surface, suggesting the way light filters through a silk curtain or glints off ancient stone. This golden patina—earned through decades of life—bestows upon this antique masterpiece a softness both visual and tactile, an essence of stillness that elevates the space it inhabits. More than an ornament, this late 19th-century Oushak is a portal into Anatolia’s rich weaving heritage. It speaks of artisans who wove not only patterns but prayers into their looms—of sultans and nomads, mosques and markets, all intertwined in the warp and weft of Turkish history. With its subdued elegance and palatial dimensions, this woven wonder transforms nearly any interior into a sanctuary of warmth, memory, and timeless beauty. Rendered in variegated shades of camel, saffron, muted yellow-green, earthy ochre, terra cotta, tan, apricot, rose, ecru, burnt orange, and sand with other accent colors. Abrash. Antique Wash. Desirable age wear. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Hotel Lobby Size Carpet 13 x 32 Rug. Measures: 12'06 x 32'00. Date: 1890's. Late 19th Century.
