About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 9'5" × 13'3" (287 × 403 cm)
A radiant example of early 20th-century Anatolian artistry, this 1920s Antique Turkish Oushak rug exemplifies the timeless grace and softness for which Oushak weavings are globally celebrated. Hand-knotted in western Turkey, this piece blends ornamental elegance with a subdued, sun-kissed palette, making it a refined statement in both traditional and modern interiors.
The rug centers around a majestic medallion enclosed in a broad open field, adorned with delicate vinery, palmettes, and floral scrollwork. Flanking spandrels and an ornate border frame the central motif, featuring a harmonious repetition of rosettes and stylized blossoms that echo classical Persian influence—reinterpreted through the distinct Oushak lens.
Warm beige, terracotta, and soft golds intermingle with gentle browns and faded apricots, creating a naturally distressed patina that reflects a century of graceful aging. The faded hues give the rug a luminous, almost watercolor-like quality, enhancing its antique charm and soothing presence.
Woven from high-grade wool, this rug displays the coarse knotting typical of Oushak craftsmanship, prized for both its softness underfoot and its painterly quality. The relatively low pile adds to its understated elegance while preserving clarity in the larger-scale motifs.
Well-preserved with expected signs of age, this antique rug maintains its structural integrity while boasting the desirable wear that lends character and authenticity to antique floor coverings. A gentle abrash (natural color variation) adds further depth and dimension to the field.
Thanks to its neutral tones and open design, this Oushak rug can effortlessly complement a wide range of interiors—from minimalist lofts to richly layered traditional rooms.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
