Doris Leslie Blau Antique Turkish Oushak Rug

About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 9'4" × 10'0" (284 × 304 cm) This exquisite antique Turkish Oushak rug originating from the Oushak region in western Anatolia, exemplifies the artistic traditions that flourished in Turkish weaving during the early 20th century. Oushak rugs are renowned for their large-scale floral patterns, soft color palettes, and high-quality wool, and this piece is a fine representation of that legacy, with its distinctive color choice and meticulous hand craftsmanship. The rug features a predominantly deep teal-blue field, a striking and somewhat rare color for Oushak rugs, which typically favor softer hues. This rich background creates a dramatic contrast against the rug’s delicate floral and geometric motifs rendered in muted pastels, including shades of beige, light pink, pale blue, and soft brown. The central area is adorned with stylized medallions and botanical forms arranged symmetrically, characteristic of the Oushak style’s abstract yet harmonious composition. Surrounding the central field is a broad beige border intricately decorated with repeating floral and starburst motifs in a coordinated color palette, adding depth and framing the design beautifully. Inside this main border are narrower guard borders with fine geometric detailing that further emphasize the rug’s balance and symmetry. Crafted with a hand-knotted pile of wool on a cotton foundation, the rug showcases a medium to high knot density typical of Oushak rugs, resulting in a lush and soft texture. The pile has aged gracefully, showing natural wear and patina that enhance the rug's vintage appeal while maintaining clarity in the detailed designs. 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.
