About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 16'5" × 21'2" (500 × 645 cm)
This exceptional antique Turkish Oushak rug from the 1920s is a magnificent example of Anatolian textile artistry, distinguished by its ethereal palette and grand scale. Hand-knotted with meticulous precision, the rug showcases a delicate interplay of muted tones—dusty apricot, pale peach, blush beige, and soft gold—creating a tranquil, faded elegance that evokes centuries of refinement.
At the heart of the composition is a luminous central medallion that softly unfolds into scrolling palmettes and botanical motifs, set against a field gently washed with time. The medallion’s shape echoes classic Oushak aesthetics, but with a whisper-like quality that feels airy and aged to perfection. Subtle abrashed shifts in tone lend texture and movement to the open field, enhancing its painterly character.
The wide border features stylized florals and meandering vines in harmonious symmetry, framed by narrow inner and outer guard stripes adorned with minimalist plant motifs. Rendered in soft reds and ochres, the border maintains the rug’s overall restraint, while providing a gentle framework to the ethereal field.
Crafted from hand-spun wool and vegetable dyes, this Oushak rug bears the hallmarks of regional mastery: a lustrous pile, generous proportions, and a loose yet sophisticated weave. Its large format, mellow colors, and understated design make it ideal for modern interiors seeking quiet luxury and historical resonance.
This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
