About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 9'6" × 15'10" (289 × 482 cm) This exquisite antique Turkish Oushak rug, dating to the 1920s, is a quintessential example of Anatolian craftsmanship—where elegance meets understated grandeur. Woven by hand in the historic town of Oushak (Uşak), renowned for its centuries-old tradition of producing rugs of remarkable quality, this piece showcases the hallmarks of the Oushak weaving style: a soft color palette, spacious design layout, and a luxurious wool pile. The rug features a loosely structured medallion-and-corner design, rendered in subdued tones of rust, apricot, camel, and faded saffron against a sandy beige field. The warm, tonal interplay lends a sun-washed appearance, suggesting years of natural patina and age-earned character. This muted coloration—typical of 20th-century Oushak rugs—offers versatility for modern interiors while retaining its historic charm. Large-scale, stylized floral motifs and palmettes bloom across the field in a rhythmic layout, conveying a sense of movement and openness. Unlike the intricate, densely packed patterns of Persian counterparts, this rug opts for spatial refinement, allowing each motif to breathe and speak. Woven with wool, the pile remains supple and plush underfoot, a testament to both the quality of the materials and the skill of its makers. The abrash (natural variations in dye) seen throughout the rug enhances its authentic, hand-crafted aesthetic. This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
