About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 12'0" × 12'8" (366 × 386 cm)
A stunning example of early 20th-century Anatolian textile artistry, this antique Turkish Oushak rug encapsulates the elegance and balance of classical Ottoman aesthetics. Handwoven circa 1900, the piece is distinguished by its harmonious palette and delightfully whimsical design motifs that bridge Eastern symbolism with Western decorative sensibilities.
The field of the rug is adorned with an expansive botanical design composed of stylized palmettes, cypress-like medallions, rosettes, and serrated leaves arranged in a symmetrical rhythm. These elements are flanked by angular vines, abstract floral sprays, and avian figures rendered in an understated, folk-art style—each appearing to float across a warm, faded ivory and camel-toned background. Subtle rust, apricot, ochre, and muted sage hues are skillfully integrated, lending a naturalistic softness to the overall composition.
The border complements the inner field with an intricate vine-scroll and cartouche motif in soft cinnamon and gold tones, enclosed by multiple minor guard bands featuring geometric patterns and flowerheads. Of particular note are the repeated motifs of stylized birds perched among the foliage, adding a charming and rare narrative quality to the rug.
Woven using high-grade wool with a visibly coarse yet supple texture, the rug retains the hallmark characteristics of Oushak craftsmanship: generous scale, restrained color palette, and an almost dreamlike decorative lightness. The gentle abrashed dyeing throughout the field enhances its vintage character and antique authenticity.
Perfectly square and generously sized, this Turkish Oushak would be a sophisticated anchor to a grand salon, dining room, or gallery-like setting. Its time-softened colors and rare iconography make it not only a visual centerpiece but a collector’s item that carries the spirit of Anatolia’s rich weaving heritage.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
