About the Item

Antique Turkish Oushak Rug Size: 12'5" × 19'10" (378 × 604 cm) This remarkable antique Oushak rug from Turkey is a stunning example of Anatolian craftsmanship at the turn of the 20th century. Woven circa 1920, the rug captures the essence of classical Oushak artistry with a beautifully subdued and tonal palette, lending it an ethereal, almost glowing quality that softens any interior space. Rendered in gentle hues of apricot, sand, cream, and warm beige, the design showcases a delicate allover botanical and geometric pattern, nearly dissolving into the background in places—an intentional trait that gives the piece its dreamlike, faded elegance. The motifs, although faint, include stylized palmettes, rosettes, and angular vinery, laid out in a lattice-like formation that lends rhythm and movement without overwhelming the senses. A wide border frames the composition with subtle floral meanders and abstract symbols, echoing the central field’s natural motifs. Despite the complexity of its design, the rug maintains an understated, almost minimalist aura—ideal for modern and traditional interiors alike. Crafted from high-quality wool and hand-knotted using traditional techniques, this rug reflects the characteristic coarseness and warmth of antique Oushak weaves, which were prized not only for their artistic value but also for their durability and plush texture. 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.
