About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak rug
Size: 9'0" x 12'9" (274 x 388 cm)
This exquisite early 20th-century Turkish Oushak rug (circa 1900) measures approximately 13 feet by 9 feet and exemplifies the rich tradition and masterful artistry of Anatolian weaving. The rug's grand scale and harmonious palette make it a stunning example of Oushak's renowned carpet craftsmanship.
The rug's field is a deep and vibrant indigo blue, serving as a dramatic backdrop for a composition of traditional Oushak motifs. The centerpiece features a large medallion with stylized floral and geometric forms, accentuated by warm tones of coral, muted pink, soft olive green, and ivory. The medallion is flanked by intricate and abstracted botanical elements, typical of Oushak's signature style that blends floral naturalism with a graphic, almost tribal aesthetic.
Surrounding the central field, multiple borders frame the piece with varying widths, each containing a repeating series of stylized motifs including large rosettes, leaf forms, and hooked diamonds rendered in a rich interplay of colors such as coral reds, muted greens, ivory, and earth tones. These borders provide a balanced contrast that both contains and highlights the deep blue of the field.
The rug is hand-knotted with a medium to coarse weave, characteristic of Turkish Oushak rugs, using high-quality wool that has aged beautifully, showcasing a rich patina. The pile is soft yet durable, and the colors, derived from natural dyes, have mellowed gracefully with age, lending the rug an inviting and warm appearance. The knotting density and weave show the skilled workmanship of the weavers, maintaining an even, tightly woven structure that ensures longevity. The edges and corners are neatly finished, reflecting the traditional methods passed down through generations.
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.
