About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 10'7" × 13'5" (322 × 408 cm)
This exceptional antique Turkish Oushak rug, measuring 14' x 11', exemplifies the time-honored artistry of Anatolian weaving, dating back to the early 20th century. Woven by hand using high-quality wool, the piece showcases the distinctive elegance and craftsmanship that define classical Oushak rugs.
The soft, powdery palette—anchored in muted taupe, pale sage, dusty beige, and faded indigo—lends the rug a sophisticated serenity, ideal for grounding a refined interior. The interplay of gentle tones highlights the rug’s expansive open field, where an intricate network of angular floral motifs and medallions unfolds with subtle asymmetry. These motifs, including stylized rosettes, palmettes, and geometric vinery, are arranged in a loosely connected lattice pattern, emblematic of traditional Oushak designs but expressed here with remarkable delicacy.
What sets this rug apart is its nuanced balance between ornamental richness and visual lightness. The drawing style is loose yet intentional, imparting a painterly quality to the overall composition. Faint blue outlines trace individual elements, creating depth without heaviness, while pale saffron and peach tones gently echo throughout the border.
The border structure is comprised of multiple guard bands flanking a wide main border, where floral and leaf motifs repeat in a continuous rhythm, lending cohesion to the overall design. The border’s slightly darker hues add contrast without overwhelming the rug’s understated central field.
Woven with a relatively coarse knot and a supple handle, this Oushak retains the authenticity of its village origins, combining rustic charm with urbane elegance. Its large size and airy design make it well-suited to contemporary and classical settings alike.
This antique Oushak is not merely a decorative piece—it is a reflection of Anatolia’s rich weaving heritage, preserved in a condition that speaks to its lasting quality and timeless appeal.
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.
