About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 6'9" × 12'0" (205 × 365 cm)
A sublime example of Anatolian craftsmanship, this 1930s Turkish Oushak rug radiates the rustic elegance and decorative subtlety that has made Oushak weavings a staple in both classic and contemporary interiors. Hand-knotted with masterful precision, the rug features a striking geometric medallion design stretching symmetrically across its length, set against a soft field of weathered camel and tobacco browns.
The two central stepped medallions, each rich in tribal iconography, are intricately adorned with stylized arrows, floral rosettes, and serrated edging—motifs symbolic of protection and natural harmony in traditional Turkish rug design. These central motifs are harmonized by an unusually broad border system, where repeated octagonal medallions and heart-like botanical forms create a rhythmic visual frame in complementary earth and blush tones.
What truly distinguishes this piece is its beautifully distressed patina, the result of nearly a century of gentle aging. Faded hues of rose, ivory, and lilac peek through the pile, adding depth, character, and a dreamlike quality to the overall composition. The asymmetrical abrash—variations in dye across the field—enhances the rug’s antique allure and authenticity.
Crafted using hand-spun wool and traditional vegetable dyes, this Oushak not only represents a tangible piece of Anatolian textile history but also offers immense decorative versatility. Whether placed in a grand hallway, a serene bedroom, or an eclectic living space, it brings quiet sophistication and timeless artistry.
Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
