1910's Antique Turkish Oushak Rug with Traditional Style

About the Item

52607 Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, 02'10 x 04'04. Woven like a forgotten verse from the highlands of Anatolia, this hand-knotted wool antique Turkish Oushak rug carries the mystique of centuries within its intimate frame. Divided into two square compartments, each panel sings with sacred geometry and ancestral motifs—mystic diagrams passed hand to hand across generations of weavers. Faded hues of terra cotta, sage, ochre, and stone evoke the patina of time, as if this Oushak had absorbed sun, soil, and spirit from the very earth it once adorned. Each compartment is a coded manuscript of symbols born from Anatolian ritual and folklore. Ram’s horn motifs spiral with masculine strength and virility, while the 'hands-on-hips' elibelinde patterns affirm the feminine force of fertility and continuity. Triangular glyphs nod to mountains and amulets, guardians of life and prosperity. T-shaped motifs and latch hooks hint at doorways—transitions between realms—while the s-hooks and scorpion forms ward off malevolent spirits, each design an amulet of protection woven into the weft of daily life. Encircling this symbolic landscape is a potent border adorned with jagged saw-tooth forms and interlocking snake motifs. These serpentine patterns not only symbolize infinity and the cyclical nature of time, but also offer protection—a woven talisman encasing the central field in a shield of sacred geometry. The asymmetry and softened lines, born from years of tread and touch, only enhance the mystical quality of the rug, like a fading prayer carved into the stone of a mountain shrine. More than a textile, this antique Oushak is a storyteller. Its softly worn textures whisper of nomadic journeys, village looms, and the silent incantations of its maker. Perfectly at home in bohemian spaces, rustic retreats, or any sanctuary that honors memory and meaning, this woven wonder is a bridge between eras—a sacred ground where beauty, belief, and history converge in the language of wool and dye. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 02'10 x 04'04. Date: 1910's. Early 20th Century.
