1870's Antique Turkish Oushak Angora Rug

About the Item

73716 Late 19th Century Antique Turkish Oushak Angora Wool Rug, 07'04 x 09'00. An antique Turkish Oushak rug made from angora wool from the 1870s is quite challenging due to several factors. These rugs are over 150 years old, making them rare and difficult to preserve. Angora wool, known for its softness and sheen, is less commonly used than other types of wool, adding to the rarity and value of such rugs. The historical context of the 1870s, marked by significant changes in the Ottoman Empire, also impacted the production and preservation of these rugs. High demand among collectors for antique Turkish Oushak rugs, especially those made from high-quality materials like angora wool, further limits their availability. This hand-knotted antique Turkish Oushak rug, woven from the finest angora wool, is a masterpiece from the late 19th century. Its all-over geometric pattern is a captivating dance of palmettes, serrated leaves, and cruciform motifs, elegantly set against an abrashed field. The interplay of these elements creates a visual symphony, where each motif tells a story of artistry and tradition. Encircling this intricate design is a rectilinear meander border, meticulously flanked by subsidiary guard bands that frame the rug with grace and precision. The time-softened colors, a gentle palette of hues, lend the rug a refreshing yet timeless appeal. This harmonious blend of colors and patterns is a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional Oushak design, evoking a sense of elegance and history. Beyond its aesthetic charm, this antique Oushak rug offers elements of comfort and functional versatility. Its plush texture invites a sense of warmth and coziness, while its striking design makes an artistic statement in any space. As a stunning focal point, this late 19th-century 1870's treasure seamlessly combines heritage with modern-day appeal, enriching your home with a piece of timeless artistry. Rendered in variegated shades of saffron, goldenrod, olive, sage, cerulean, slate, peach, apricot, beige, ecru, oyster gray with persimmon and pumpkin accents. ​Abrash. Hand-knotted angora wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 07'04 x 09'00. Date: 1870s. Late 19th Century.
