1920's Antique Turkish Oushak Rug with Traditional Style

About the Item

51291 Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, 09'04 x 12'02. Bathed in the faded splendor of indigo dreams and Anatolian twilight, this hand-knotted wool antique Turkish Oushak rug is a portrait of poetic memory rendered in thread. At the heart of its soft tan colored field lies a majestic lobed medallion, blooming in radiant cobalt blue—its floral tracery an echo of Ottoman courtly gardens and the winding arabesques of classical Anatolia. It radiates like the calm center of a celestial compass, grounding the composition with regal grace. Surrounding this medallion, the open field is a parchment of serenity, delicately inscribed with softly curling vines, tulips, palmettes, and flowering stems. These motifs dance across the surface like illuminated marginalia in an ancient manuscript—whispering tales of love, pilgrimage, and paradise long sought. Time has gently softened the hues, lending this piece an heirloom patina, where every bloom and tendril seems brushed by golden dusk. The corner spandrels mirror the medallion’s elaborate form, gently balancing the design with their mirrored flourish, while the rhythm of their floral sprays builds a quiet harmony. The Oushak rug’s composition maintains a lyrical asymmetry, as if guided by the hand of a wandering poet-weaver, more enchanted by spirit than by symmetry. Framing this reverie is a deep sapphire border, filled with stylized lotus blossoms and rosettes unfolding between scrolling leaves—a garden forever in bloom. Flanked by narrow guard bands, this frame imparts a noble structure to the airy expanse within. A relic of sublime craftsmanship and soul, this Oushak rug is not merely woven wool—it is a passage through memory and myth, where color becomes voice and pattern becomes poetry. Rendered in variegated shades of tan, blue, sand, sapphire, indigo, and ecru with other accent colors. Abrash. Antique Wash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 09'04 x 12'02. Pile Height: 0.26 of an inch. Date: 1920's. Early 20th Century.
