About the Item

74250 Late 19th Century Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, 11'02 x 14'00. Woven in the golden age of Anatolian rug craftsmanship, this hand knotted wool Late 19th Century Turkish Oushak rug exudes an ethereal charm steeped in history and tradition. Its soft, timeworn palette of warm beige, tranquil terra cotta, and cool sky blue embodies the patina of a bygone era, where master weavers translated the poetic beauty of Ottoman textiles into every knot. The elegantly distressed woolen field brims with an intricate network of palmettes, floral vinery, and interlacing tendrils, each motif meticulously placed to create a harmonious sense of movement and rhythm. A testament to the artistry of Anatolian weaving, this antique Oushak rug is imbued with age-old symbols of prosperity, protection, and eternity, woven in a mesmerizing lattice of botanical motifs. The warm and subdued tones, evoking an almost dreamlike serenity, indicate the use of natural vegetable dyes, which were dominant in the 19th century. The grand central field is embraced by a sophisticated border of stylized blossoms, serrated leaves, and undulating vines, all interconnected in a continuous flow, mirroring the endless cycles of nature. What truly sets this 19th-century treasure apart is its exquisitely soft wool and coarse knotting, a distinguishing feature of early Oushak production. The organic variations in tone, known as abrash, add depth and dimension, ensuring that each viewing angle offers a slightly different hue—a poetic reminder of the hands that wove this piece over a century ago. Subtle asymmetry in the motifs further highlights its one-of-a-kind, handwoven nature, a trait cherished by collectors and connoisseurs alike. A living relic of Ottoman textile heritage, this antique Oushak rug is not merely a decorative piece but a portal to a time when every thread was imbued with cultural significance. Whether gracing the floors of a grand hall or serving as the foundation for an intimate space, this magnificent rug invites a sense of history, warmth, and understated luxury—an heirloom destined to endure for generations to come. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 11'02 x 14'00. Pile Height: 0.21 of an inch. Date: 1880's. Late 19th Century.
