About the Item
Antique Turkish Oushak Rug
Size: 14'2" × 14'9" (431 × 449 cm)
Color: Beige, Orange
This exquisite antique Turkish Oushak rug, dating from the 1920s, measures approximately 15 feet by 14 feet and exemplifies the refined artistry and timeless elegance of Oushak weaving traditions. Crafted with a sophisticated palette dominated by warm, muted tones of soft orange, terracotta, and delicate beige, the rug emanates a gentle, welcoming ambiance suited for both classic and contemporary interiors.
The central field showcases a harmonious arrangement of large-scale floral and botanical motifs characteristic of Oushak rugs, rendered with a subtle and painterly quality. Stylized flowers, leafy tendrils, and geometric medallions interlace across the surface with a rhythmic grace, creating a sense of movement and vitality. The design is softly abstracted yet unmistakably rooted in Anatolian heritage.
Surrounding the central field, the borders are elegantly framed with a series of intricate bands featuring repeating geometric and floral patterns. The main border is adorned with a sequence of stylized blossoms and medallions, rendered in richer hues that provide a beautiful contrast against the lighter background.
Hand-knotted with a wool pile of medium thickness on a cotton foundation, this Oushak rug displays excellent craftsmanship with a plush texture and a slight sheen, attesting to the quality of the wool and skill of the weavers. The natural dyes used contribute to the rug’s warm and earthy color harmony, which has mellowed beautifully with age.
Overall, this rug is a distinguished example of early 20th-century Turkish Oushak weaving, embodying both the rustic charm and sophisticated artistry that have made Oushak rugs highly prized among collectors and design connoisseurs worldwide. Its large scale, subtle color palette, and timeless motifs make it an ideal centerpiece for adding historical depth and understated luxury to any room.
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.
