About the Item
Early 20th century Turkish Oushak rug
Size: 11'4" × 14'8" (345 × 447 cm)
This magnificent oversized antique Turkish Oushak rug, dating from the early 20th century (circa 1900), exemplifies the timeless elegance and craftsmanship of traditional Anatolian weaving.
The rug features an intricate, large-scale floral and geometric pattern characteristic of classic Oushak rugs, but with a uniquely soft and faded palette that speaks to its age and vintage charm. The central field is adorned with a medallion-like motif surrounded by stylized blossoms, palmettes, and vine tendrils, creating a harmonious balance between symmetry and organic flow. The border complements the central design with a delicate sequence of repeating floral and geometric shapes, lending a frame-like effect that anchors the composition.
The colors are notably muted and pastel, with a base of soft creams and beiges interspersed with faded ochre, muted coral, and subtle hints of blush pink. This gentle color scheme enhances the antique appeal, creating an airy, serene aesthetic that works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary interiors. The softly worn and sun-bleached look adds character and a subtle patina, suggesting decades of careful use and preservation.
Handwoven from high-quality wool, this Oushak rug boasts a plush pile with a dense, yet supple weave. The natural wool fibers have mellowed gracefully over time, providing a sumptuous texture underfoot. The weaving technique reflects the skilled craftsmanship of Anatolian artisans, with fine knots and meticulous attention to detail visible upon close inspection. Originating from the Oushak region in western Turkey, historically renowned for producing some of the most exquisite Turkish rugs, this piece embodies the rich cultural heritage and artisanal traditions of its time.
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.
