About the Item

74173 Late 19th Century Antique Green Turkish Oushak Rug, 14'02 x 15'07. Woven in the twilight of the Ottoman Empire, this rare hand-knotted wool Turkish Oushak rug from the Late 19th Century stands as a precious relic of Anatolia’s enduring artistic legacy. At its heart, a sumptuous red cusped lozenge medallion unfurls with iconic grace, its form delicately crowned with palmette finials that echo the grandeur of imperial motifs. This mesmerizing central jewel rests upon an exquisite field washed in an abrashed, painterly fusion of subdued pistachio and soft avocado hues—tones that whisper of old gardens and sun-warmed stone courtyards. The refined composition is exceptional, revealing a harmony between bold geometry and botanical elegance, evoking a sense of refined serenity. Framing the captivating medallion, a pair of larger than life serrated weeping willows bloom in stylized symmetry, their elegant forms reaching toward eternity with a quiet, organic rhythm. Blossoming palmettes and stylish florid tendrils rise around them, forming a poetic tableau of Anatolian flora—each unique motif a tribute to nature rendered through the lens of sophisticated abstraction. Between the quarter panels, stemmed vines extend like lyrical brushstrokes, radiating outward in layers of movement and vitality with boundless creativity. The dreamlike palette, though softened by age, retains its lavish contrasts: reds converse vibrantly with greens, while golden saffron and celestial sage glimmer beneath the surface, lending the textile a timeless glow. The majestic field itself pulses with intricate detail—a bespoke language of geometric symbolism and botanical reverie. Small abstract motifs cluster like constellations, creating a dense yet harmonious pattern that captures both rhythm and repose. This one-of-a-kind rug, with its diamond medallion and gently mirrored whimsical corner spandrels, is not merely decorative; it is a meditation on balance and continuity. Woven in wool dyed by hand, its every knot speaks to the impeccable craftsmanship of Anatolia’s weavers, whose flawless hands preserved an ancestral artistry passed down through generations of elite textile makers. Encircling the central field, the enchanting main border offers a visual cadence of rectilinear floral elements—a structured yet animated procession of spellbinding blossoms and leaves, geometric yet unmistakably organic. Framed with harmonizing guard bands, the border’s rhythm reflects the compositional integrity of this magnificent piece, lending a flawless finish to this opulent tableau of motifs. The irresistible contrast between the orderly perimeter and the free-flowing vitality of the interior creates an aesthetic tension that feels both dynamic and serene. In this sensational tension lies the secret of Oushak’s enduring allure: its ability to balance grandeur and grace, tradition and innovation. It has the capacity to transcend fleeting trends while retaining its magnetic charm. To possess this one-of-a-kind work of art is to hold a piece of cultural nobility—an exclusive creation that bridges centuries of heritage with the enduring language of design. It is more than a floor covering; it is an artisanal masterpiece steeped in decadent beauty, capturing the essence of a world where textiles were revered as both functional and spiritual. As timeless today as it was over a century ago, this precious woven wonder invites us into a story told in wool, where each ethereal hue and flowing line reflects the soul of a civilization and the glamorous legacy of Anatolian luxury. Seek something extraordinary that sets you apart from the masses. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of unparalleled craftsmanship and design. Rendered in an eclectic mix and variegated shades of avocado, moss, pistachio, fern, olive, scarlet red, ruby red, rose, and light pink with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 14'02 X 15'07. Date: 1870's. Late 19th Century.
