Vintage Blue Turkish Oushak Rug with French Coastal Style
About the Item
53078 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug, 05'06 x 07'03. Antique-washed Turkish Oushak rugs are a distinct variation of traditional rugs originating from the Oushak region in western Turkey. These rugs undergo a specialized washing process. During this process, the colors are softened, and the rug is imbued with a weathered charm reminiscent of aged pieces. The objective of antique-washing is to mimic the natural fading and patina that develops over time on authentic antique rugs, thereby infusing the Oushak rug with a sense of history and character. Typically, antique-washed Oushak rugs showcase muted, earthy tones and subtle color variations, enhancing their vintage allure. They blend the enduring craftsmanship of traditional Turkish rug-making with the nostalgic appeal of antique aesthetics, making them highly sought-after for both classic and contemporary interior settings.
Balancing traditional sensibility and French Coastal style with nostalgic tribal elements, this hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug embodies a fusion of influences, drawing from both Caucasian and Anatolian heritage. Its abrashed creamy-beige field serves as a canvas for a stepped geometric compartment adorned with a hooked lozenge medallion, subtly accented with two tiny diamonds at either end. Corner spandrels feature ambiguous tree of life motifs, while rosette flowers run along the vertical sides, infusing the rug with visual intrigue. Encircling the composition is an Elibelinde motif border, flanked by inner and outer running water guard borders, contributing to its timeless aesthetic.
Though outwardly unassuming, this vintage Turkish rug is steeped in Anatolian history, with its design elements carrying symbolic significance. Derived from the virility of the Ram's Horn motif, the Classic Elibelinde motif, also known as the “hands on hips” or goddess motif, symbolizes concepts of motherhood and fertility, while the ram’s horns embody masculinity and power. The fertility bereket motifs, incorporating both ram’s horn and hands-on-hips motifs into a unified design with a central diamond, represent the merging of masculine and feminine energies. Emitting an aura of timeless allure and unparalleled warmth through its subdued color palette, this vintage Oushak rug serves as an embodiment of sophistication, offering a serene ambiance to any space it adorns.
With its tranquil blue hues and blissful vibes, this Oushak area rug is ideally suited for coastal interiors, evoking the ambiance of seaside locales such as The Hamptons, Martha's Vineyard, Cape Cod cottages, Nantucket Beach, Beach Houses, Coastal Cottages, Seaside Sanctuaries, or Lakefront Vacation Homes. Whether complementing a relaxed beachfront retreat or adding a touch of coastal elegance to an urban dwelling, this vintage Oushak rug exudes a sense of timeless charm and coastal serenity.
Rendered in variegated shades of beige, royal blue, sand, sky blue, cream, azure, navy blue, and almond with other accent colors.
