About the Item

A distressed Oushak rug refers to a type of traditional Turkish rug known for its unique style and design. Oushak rugs, also known as Ushak rugs, are named after the town of Oushak in western Turkey, which has been a prominent rug production center for centuries. The term "distressed" in the context of Oushak rugs refers to a deliberate aging process or treatment applied to the rug to give it a vintage or antique appearance. This process involves various techniques that simulate the natural wear and tear that occurs over time. Distressing methods can include bleaching, washing, sanding, or chemical treatments to fade colors, soften the wool fibers, and create a weathered or aged look. Distressed Oushak rugs typically have muted or faded colors, worn-out areas, and a low pile, which adds to their vintage charm and character. These rugs often feature a central medallion surrounded by floral or geometric motifs, and they are known for their soft, pastel color palettes and subtle designs. Many people appreciate distressed Oushak rugs for their ability to add a touch of history, elegance, and warmth to both traditional and modern interiors. They can be used as statement pieces in living rooms, dining rooms, or bedrooms, or as decorative accents in hallways or entryways. Eliko Rugs by David Ariel features this Anatolian workshop carpet still shows character with a narrow, rust-red field centered by a pendant and lobed medallion, set within green floral arabesque corners. Dark border with a floral train accent. Coarse weave
