About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 9'8" × 13'4" (294 × 406 cm) A striking example of early 20th-century Anatolian craftsmanship, this antique Turkish Oushak rug showcases the timeless beauty and subdued elegance that defines classical Oushak weaving. Rendered in a soft, ethereal palette of faded apricot, blush, and muted beige with touches of pale gray and dusty rose, the rug exudes warmth and serenity, making it a perfect complement to both traditional and contemporary interiors. The design centers around large-scale, stylized medallions and botanical motifs, arranged in a loose symmetrical layout that emphasizes openness and visual balance. The softly articulated florals and scrolling vines float gently over the field, their forms intentionally diffused by the rug’s age and patina. The border presents a classic reciprocating floral and leaf design with ivory-toned blossoms over a softly worn terra-cotta ground, gently enclosing the central field without dominating it. Hand-knotted using lustrous wool, the rug retains the tactile richness and durability associated with high-quality Oushak rugs. The pile is low and beautifully worn, revealing the masterful dye work and aged character of the piece. Subtle abrashed tones throughout the field lend depth and nuance, testifying to the use of natural dyes and the artisanal dyeing process. This antique Oushak is a statement of restrained opulence, offering a timeless aesthetic rooted in Turkish rug-making heritage. Ideal for sophisticated spaces seeking character, harmony, and a touch of faded grandeur. 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.
