About the Item
52129 Vintage Turkish Oushak Runner 03'05 x 13'02. Bathed in a dreamy color palette, this hand knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug runner is a lyrical composition of Ottoman refinement and pastoral grace. Its narrow form is elongated with regal intent, orchestrating an elegant procession of palmette medallions that appear to float across a glowing crimson field. These pale cartouches, each encircled with stylized florets and symmetrical vines, mirror the botanical illuminations of court manuscripts—each one a stanza in the poem of Anatolian design.
The medallions, rendered in soft creams and muted gray-blue hues, evoke the garden of paradise so central to Turkish myth and mysticism. Suspended in their vertical cadence, they are joined by delicate floral sprays, each one a herald of spring and renewal. There is a dreamlike clarity in the negative space between them—an interval of visual stillness that allows each motif to breathe, to unfurl like the petals of an early bloom kissed by dawn-light.
Framing this reverie is a floral border, echoing the medallion colors, decorated with an array of rustic floral forms and softly geometric meanders. The border’s repetition is not mechanical but musical—each rosette and vine bends with hand-drawn imperfection, a testament to the rug’s human origin and the rhythm of the loom. This frame serves not only to contain the lush interior but to echo its themes of growth and gentleness, like a stone garden wall alive with creeping wildflowers.
This Oushak runner carries the quiet majesty of time, woven not only for warmth and tread but for reflection and reverence. It transforms the corridor it adorns into a place of passage and pause- of journey and inward return. A marriage of structure and softness, geometry and bloom, it is a piece imbued with memory, one that continues to speak in a tongue of subtle color, organic form, and enduring beauty.
Rendered in variegated shades of red, light gray, rose, light yellow, light pink, gray, beige, sand, gold, dark pink, peach, and charcoal with other accent colors.
