About the Item

This 16x18 antique Oushak rug represents one of the most structurally complex and exceptional curations of this celebrated provenance in the Rug Kilim collection—a regal late 19th-century design teeming with the dramatic use of central geometry that distinguishes Oushaks in the history of Turkish rugs. Made with hand-knotted wool and originating from West Anatolia circa 1880–1900. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will know Oushak rugs often reflect a fascinating fusion of Persian, Chinese, and Central Asian design elements, and are one of the most individualistic rug types for each piece’s unique employ of transitional colors and bold geometry. This particular piece is anchored by a magnificent grand lozenge medallion—a colossal diamond shape—that dominates the field. The field surrounding the medallion is saturated in a rich, pervasive terracotta and rust red, providing a dramatic backdrop for the intricate secondary motifs. The medallion itself is rendered in subtle, contrasting tones of soft beige and muted blue/gray, creating a stunning visual effect where the entire central composition seems to float above the field. The meticulous detail continues across the entire textile: the outer field and the medallion are densely patterned with stylized palmettes, geometric flower sprays, and repeating tribal motifs. The sophisticated palette and powerful, singular abstraction make this rug a true collector’s piece and a decorator’s dream alike, further enjoying the unusual, but quite versatile large size many Oushaks offer. Condition: This antique Oushak rug is in good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor.
