About the Item

Vintage Turkish Oushak rugs,are a type of traditional handwoven carpet that originates from the Oushak region in western Turkey. These rugs are highly regarded for their unique designs, color palettes, and craftsmanship. Here are some key characteristics of vintage Turkish Oushak rugs: Oushak is a historical region known for its rich tradition of rug weaving. The art of rug making in Oushak dates back centuries, and the rugs from this region have gained international recognition for their quality and beauty. Vintage Oushak rugs are often recognized for their large-scale, intricate designs. They typically feature a central medallion surrounded by ornate floral motifs, vines, and geometric patterns. The designs are known for their asymmetry and soft, muted color palettes. Oushak rugs are renowned for their soft, earthy color tones. These rugs tend to have a gentle and understated color palette, with shades of beige, ivory, muted reds, blues, and greens being common. Oushak rugs are traditionally handwoven using high-quality wool as the primary material. The wool is known for its softness and durability. The pile (the raised surface of the rug) is typically relatively low, giving the rug a more textured and vintage appearance. Oushak rugs come in various sizes, from small accent pieces to room-sized carpets. They can be rectangular, square, or even runner-shaped, depending on their intended use. One of the defining characteristics of vintage Oushak rugs is their aged and distressed appearance. Over time, these rugs acquire a patina and a softness that add to their overall charm. This aging process is considered desirable by collectors and enthusiasts. Vintage Oushak rugs are highly sought after by collectors, interior designers, and individuals who appreciate traditional craftsmanship. Their unique designs, historical significance, and the artistry involved in their creation contribute to their value. Oushak rugs not only serve as beautiful decorative pieces but also functional floor coverings. They can enhance the aesthetic of various interior styles, from traditional and classic to eclectic and bohemian. Eliko Rugs by David Ariel features this Oushak piece with an abrashed sand open field showing a pole medallion of three, lobed ogival medallions with corresponding half side and quarter corner motives. Abrashed main border with forked arabesques and millefleurs vignettes. Moderate/coarse weave. Fairly good condition. Softer palette. Sage green accents.
