About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 11'6" × 12'7" (350 × 383 cm).
This exceptional antique Turkish Oushak rug from the early 1900s is a celebration of Anatolian artistry, renowned for its large-scale design motifs and dreamy, decorative palettes. Woven in the iconic Oushak region of Western Turkey, the rug exemplifies the fusion of rustic craftsmanship with elegant, time-softened color harmony.
The field is bathed in a delicate coral-rose ground, serving as a warm, luminous canvas for the ornate geometric and botanical motifs arranged in a spacious, symmetrical composition. Stylized palmettes, rosettes, medallions, and tulips in soft ivory, gold, and apricot float rhythmically across the surface, evoking the garden-inspired themes of classical Ottoman design.
A hallmark of this piece is its distinctive all-over layout—eschewing a dominant central medallion for a flowing, tapestry-like pattern that offers balance without rigidity. The wide border, woven in pale buff and sand tones, features an eclectic mix of symbols—abstract florals, stars, and tribal emblems—that provide a framing contrast to the energetic interior.
Hand-knotted from high-grade wool, the rug retains a luxurious texture and a mellow sheen that reflects its age and authenticity. The naturally dyed fibers have aged gracefully, lending the piece an understated elegance and an inviting softness both visually and to the touch.
With its square-ish proportions and softly faded tones, this antique Oushak rug would be a striking foundation for a salon, study, or intimate dining space. It’s particularly well suited to interiors that blend contemporary minimalism with a sense of storied tradition.
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.
