About the Item
Oushak rugs, also known as Ushak rugs, are woven in Western Turkey and have distinct designs, such as angular large-scale floral patterns. They usually evoke a calmness and peacefulness in a room. To this day, production of Oushak rugs continues with a contemporary look and feel but retain the aesthetic of their prototypical predecessors.
Oushaks began in a location just south of Istanbul, in a region that was to become the rugs namesake, Oushak. Although nomads first produced the rugs for their personal use, since the 15th century, Oushak was the center of significant production of Turkish rugs. In the 17th century, Europeans began buying their rugs and carpets from European manufacturers. When Oushak carpets came back into vogue in the 19th century, the practice of making the rugs had diminished in Oushak. The artists in nearby villages began to create the Oushaks using the traditional process.
Middle Eastern carpets can also be seen in art from the Renaissance Period. There are more paintings of these rugs and carpets than actual rugs and carpets that survived from that age. Artists added the rugs to paintings as decorative and colorful focal points in the artwork. In fact, scientists often use antique rugs' date of creation on carpets that artists painted into datable European paintings.
An Oushak rug or carpet is easily recognized. Most Oushaks have a golden or soft ivory background with floral or geometric designs. The paints used come in colors ranging from cinnamon to saffron from natural vegetable dyes, and the wool used gives off a silky, luminescent aura.
In the late 19th century, floral patterns became more prominent, and artists produced room size rugs to accommodate European standards.
