About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 13'10" × 23'0" (421 × 701 cm)
This striking Antique Turkish Oushak rug, woven circa 1900, is a remarkable representation of Anatolia’s enduring artistic legacy. Crafted in the renowned weaving center of Oushak, this carpet beautifully reflects the grandeur and refined aesthetic typical of larger palace-size rugs from the region.
The rug’s design features an intricate all-over pattern composed of stylized floral motifs and radiant palmettes arranged in a rhythmic, symmetrical layout. These elements are set against a warm, softly aged ivory ground, allowing the carefully chosen palette of rust, soft blue, coral, ochre, and touches of midnight brown to shine with delicate harmony. The pattern flows fluidly across the field, framed by a rich series of guard borders that incorporate flowering vine scrolls and repeated rosette medallions.
The palette and drawing in this piece are hallmarks of Oushak weaving, where the influence of Persian design is evident but interpreted with a looser, more abstract hand—creating a sense of relaxed elegance. The wool pile is exceptionally soft and luminous, with natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over time, enhancing the carpet’s patina and character.
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.
