About the Item
52405 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug Runner, 03'04 x 11'00. Woven beneath the Anatolian sun and steeped in the symbols of sacred protection, this hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug runner unfolds like a prayer whispered into the soil. Its field is anchored by two monumental stepped hexagonal medallions, each adorned with latch-hooked finials and ancient motifs passed down through generations. These medallions—cast in hues of golden saffron, smoky gray, and terra cotta red—speak a visual language of balance and spiritual resilience, acting as both aesthetic focal points and talismanic guardians.
Surrounding these medallions is a ceremonial landscape brimming with Anatolian symbology. Amulets, protective crosses, and stylized stars bloom across the field like desert constellations—tokens of warding and guidance drawn from village lore. The geometry feels both deliberate and instinctive, as if the weaver followed a map of memory rather than a pattern, infusing the piece with the character of lived tradition. Each symbol pulses with meaning: a blessing for fertility, a shield from the evil eye, a sign of safe passage.
The entire composition is enclosed in a series of evocative borders, each one a chorus line in this textile song. A meandering guard of carnations—symbolizing affection and eternal life—flanks a wider band of floret motifs, their rhythmic arrangement echoing the natural cycles of bloom and return. In these borders, one finds both containment and expansion, a framing that honors the story within while inviting the eye to travel, to return, and to dwell.
As both artifact and adornment, this vintage Oushak runner is steeped in soul and story. Its charm lies not merely in its visual splendor but in its spiritual resonance—its ability to transcend trend and speak to the enduring human desire for beauty, protection, and permanence. Whether laid across a hallway, anchoring a vestibule, or gracing a gallery wall, it brings with it the voice of Anatolia: rich, rooted, and radiant.
Rendered in variegated shades of brick red, terra cotta, rust, burnt orange, orange, brass, goldenrod, ocher, gray, dark gray, charcoal, onyx, coffee, sienna, camel, ecru, tan, olive, pale pistachio, beige, and greige with other accent colors.
