About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 11'8" × 15'3" (355 × 464 cm) This antique Oushak rug from early 20th-century Turkey is an exquisite example of Anatolian craftsmanship, prized for both its cultural heritage and decorative appeal. Woven circa 1920, the rug demonstrates the hallmarks of traditional Oushak artistry, including a luxurious wool pile, soft color transitions, and an intricate yet understated floral design. The field features an allover scrolling botanical pattern composed of stylized palmettes, rosettes, and leafy vines arranged in a mirrored, flowing composition. The design is rendered in earthy terracotta, soft apricot, camel, and cream tones—warm colors that harmonize effortlessly to create a sense of understated grandeur. A gentle abrash throughout the field adds texture and character, speaking to the rug's handwoven nature and vintage authenticity. The multiple borders are richly layered. The main border is adorned with alternating rosettes and stylized geometric motifs, while inner and outer minor borders offer delicate linearity and balance. Notably, the outermost stripe features scrolling floral forms that echo the field design, creating a unified and cohesive aesthetic. The high-grade wool imparts a luminous sheen and a soft, pliable handle, indicative of the superior materials and techniques used in Anatolian weaving traditions. Despite its age, the rug retains excellent integrity, with minor signs of wear that enhance its antique charm without compromising durability. Whether placed in a classic, rustic, or contemporary interior, this antique Turkish Oushak rug serves as both a grounding element and a visual centerpiece. Its versatile color palette and elegant pattern make it an exceptional choice for collectors and designers seeking a piece that exudes timeless sophistication and handcrafted 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.
