Oversized Antique Turkish Oushak Rug BB6763 11'7" × 16'5" $54,000
$54,000
A splendid example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, this oversized antique Oushak rug from Turkey showcases the enduring legacy of Anatolian weaving traditions. Woven circa 1900, the carpet features a soft, warm-toned field dominated by botanical and palmette motifs, flanked by angular vinery and stylized floral elements typical of the Oushak aesthetic.
The beige backdrop allows the intricate design work to shine — with tones of terra cotta, rust, and olive green arranged in a striking yet balanced composition. Medallions, rosettes, and serrated leaves anchor the field in a loosely organized, allover layout, lending an organic rhythm to the visual flow. The wide border frames the composition with a classic meandering vine and ornate rosettes, accentuated with lively geometric guard strips.
This piece exemplifies the luxurious wool pile and soft finish for which antique Oushaks are celebrated. The texture has a lush, almost velvety handle, and the nuanced abrash adds a sense of movement and age that’s impossible to replicate in newer rugs.
Perfect for traditional, transitional, or bohemian interiors, this antique Oushak merges historical elegance with a warm, livable palette — making it a timeless investment in artistry and comfort.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship.
