Antique Oushak Turkish Medallion Geometric Light Gray With Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1920 BB9080 9'8" × 15'1" $50,000

This refined antique Turkish Oushak rug from the 1920s exemplifies the understated elegance and sophisticated palette for which early 20th-century Oushak weavings are renowned. Rendered in soft, timeworn tones of pale sage, warm ivory, and gentle taupe, the field is adorned with delicately drawn abstract and geometric motifs, arranged with generous spacing that lends the composition an airy, modern sensibility.

A discreet central medallion anchors the design, while scattered tribal symbols and linear elements create a poetic, almost calligraphic rhythm across the surface. The wide border, populated with stylized figures and archaic motifs, frames the composition with quiet character and historical depth. The finely woven wool pile has developed a beautifully mellow patina over time, enhancing the rug’s tactile richness and visual softness.

Both versatile and decorative, this large-scale Oushak rug is well suited to refined contemporary interiors as well as classic settings, bringing warmth, texture, and a sense of cultivated restraint to living rooms, dining spaces, or grand bedrooms.

This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship.
