About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug (size adjusted) Size: 11'4" × 19'4" (345 × 589 cm) A remarkable example of early 20th-century Anatolian craftsmanship, this antique Turkish Oushak rug captures the enduring beauty and artistry of village weaving traditions. Rendered in a harmonious palette of soft taupe, mocha brown, and ivory, the rug displays a restrained elegance that feels both ancient and modern. The field is adorned with an impressive array of large-scale, geometric medallions arranged in a rhythmic vertical layout. These medallions—some featuring stylized starbursts, others with floral rosettes or diamond-shaped latticework—are punctuated by angular motifs and tribal-inspired symbols that imbue the composition with energy and movement. Subtle abrash throughout the field attests to the use of natural dyes and hand-spun wool, lending the rug a beautifully aged, variegated patina. A series of framing borders enhance the overall symmetry of the piece. The main border features a continuous vine scroll with palmettes and rosettes drawn in a primitive, rustic style—a signature of village Oushak weaving. Guard borders filled with geometric rosettes and abstract florals create a layered, dimensional transition between the field and edges. Hand-knotted in wool with a visibly coarse yet supple weave, the rug bears the tactile hallmarks of Turkish village rugs woven in the Oushak region. Its subdued, earthy color story makes it highly versatile for a range of interiors, from classical to contemporary, and its tribal motifs add cultural depth and charm. This antique Turkish Oushak rug is not only a decorative masterpiece but also a collectible textile—an artifact that reflects the richness of Anatolia’s textile heritage and the soulful imperfection of handmade art. 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.
