About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 13'7" × 15'6" (414 × 472 cm) This magnificent antique Turkish Oushak rug from the 1920s captures the essence of Anatolian craftsmanship with a serene palette and grand scale that together create a commanding yet calming presence. Woven in the renowned rug-producing region of Western Anatolia, this piece exemplifies the subtle elegance and artistic refinement for which Oushak rugs are treasured. Rendered in a harmonious blend of warm beige and rich walnut brown, the rug features an intricate botanical design centered around stylized palmettes, angular floral rosettes, and delicately branching vinery. These motifs are gracefully arranged across an open field, creating a sense of movement and symmetry that remains visually gentle despite the rug’s scale. Framed by a border of meandering vines and rosettes, with complementary guard bands enclosing the composition, the rug exhibits a timeless balance between structure and organic flow. The slightly abrashed wool lends depth and character, enhancing the visual texture and reflecting the artisanal quality of its hand-woven origins. Oushak rugs like this are prized for their decorative versatility and relaxed sophistication. The muted earth tones make this piece especially well-suited to both contemporary and traditional interiors—ideal for anchoring a large living area or formal room with understated grandeur. Hand-knotted using soft, high-quality wool and a traditional symmetrical (Ghiordes) knot, this antique rug offers a supple texture and enduring durability, embodying nearly a century of history and craftsmanship. 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.
