About the Item

76747 Antique Green Turkish Oushak Rug, 10'09 x 11'09. Turkish Oushak rugs, originating from the Oushak region in Western Turkey, are renowned for their intricate designs, soft color palettes, and high-quality wool. Characterized by bold motifs, muted earthy tones, dense pile, and various sizes, these rugs have a rich history dating back to the Ottoman Empire. They gained international fame during the 16th and 17th centuries, prized for their craftsmanship and elegance. Influenced by Persian, Anatolian, and European styles, Oushak rugs continue to be handcrafted by skilled artisans, preserving centuries-old traditions while remaining highly sought after by collectors and interior designers worldwide. This Late 19th Century hand-knotted wool Turkish Oushak rug radiates a timeless elegance, blending nature-inspired motifs with architectural precision. Its verdant abrashed green field acts as a tranquil canvas for intricate geometric and botanical designs, creating a harmonious interplay of texture and color. The central pole medallion is the rug’s focal point, featuring angular palmettes, leafy tendrils, and sinuous vines evocative of the Harshang style. These motifs symbolize growth, continuity, and the beauty of the natural world, their organic shapes flowing seamlessly across the field to create a dynamic visual rhythm. The composition is framed by a rectilinear border adorned with stylized botanical motifs, reflecting a balance between nature’s spontaneity and geometric order. Inner and outer meander guard bands and an outer sawtooth guard stripe provide additional layers of structure and refinement. The sawtooth pattern, often associated with protection, adds a subtle yet meaningful touch to the design, safeguarding the harmony within the rug’s intricate layout. This interplay of motifs not only enriches the design but also reflects the cultural and symbolic significance embedded in traditional Turkish weaving. The rug’s earthy palette of greens, warm terra cottas, and golden hues speaks to its origins, grounding its aesthetic in the landscapes of Anatolia. The nuanced color variations, achieved through the labor-intensive process of hand-knotting and natural dyeing, lend the rug an almost painterly quality. These tones create a balance of warmth and sophistication, making the rug equally suited for formal living spaces and cozy retreats. The verdant tones symbolize renewal and vitality, while the terracotta hues evoke the warmth and richness of the Anatolian earth. Each knot of this Turkish Oushak rug tells a story of craftsmanship and artistry, a testament to the skill and dedication of the weaver. The rug’s patterns and palette, deeply rooted in tradition, connect past and present, infusing modern interiors with a sense of history and heritage. Whether placed in a grand dining room or a serene study, this masterpiece exudes a quiet elegance, transforming any space into a sanctuary of beauty and cultural depth. Its enduring appeal ensures it will be cherished for generations to come, a true heirloom of Turkish artistry. Rendered in variegated shades of green, soft brick red, sage, olive, terra cotta, baked clay, burnt orange, goldenrod, saffron, and tan with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool.
