About the Item
50038 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug, 02'06 X 11'11. Steeped in heritage yet radiating contemporary grace, this hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak runner is a triumph of restrained opulence. Its composition—anchored by a sequence of commanding hexagonal medallions—reveals a harmony between architectural precision and spiritual symbolism. Each signature medallion functions as a woven talisman, invoking both balance and protection, while its stepped edges suggest the ascending form of ancient ziggurats. This is a Turkish masterpiece designed not simply to adorn, but to elevate—to transform its surroundings into a passage of quiet grandeur and timeless sophistication.
The artistry is deeply rooted in Anatolia’s illustrious weaving legacy, where every motif carries a story and every symbol a purpose. Within the medallions, stylized amulets and scorpion motifs stand as ancient guardians against misfortune, their angular geometry expressing both strength and grace. The delicate bird forms woven between them serve as emblems of love and prosperity, softening the design’s rigor with lyrical balance. The interplay between geometry and spirit reflects the dual nature of Oushak artistry—regal yet human, refined yet elemental.
The precious rug’s texture adds another dimension to its allure. The hand-spun wool possesses a luminous sheen, responding to light with an almost silken subtlety. Variations in tonality and weave create a painterly effect, a sophisticated abrashed surface that whispers of age, authenticity, and tactility. Its surface exudes the calm richness of timeworn luxury—the kind of beauty that feels inherited rather than acquired. Each inch bears the trace of craftsmanship passed through generations, a legacy of skill refined to near perfection.
To own such an exquisite work of art is to possess more than a rug—it is to inherit an artifact of cultural resonance and aesthetic mastery. This exceptional Oushak runner speaks to those who appreciate the nuance of rarity and the poetry of design that transcends fashion. Whether gracing the corridor of a modern penthouse or the entryway of a heritage estate, it embodies an aura of cultivated prestige—an object of enduring beauty for the collector who values history woven into the fabric of modern life.
Rendered in variegated shades of camel, butterscotch, caramel, tan, sand, ecru, taupe, coffee, espresso, brown, peanut, and mocha with other neutral striations.
