Antique Turkish Oushak Rug BB7505 12'0" × 14'2" $70,000

This exquisite antique Turkish Oushak rug exemplifies the refined artistry and subtle beauty characteristic of Oushak weaving traditions. The rug’s softly muted palette features a harmonious blend of dusty pinks, warm browns, and gentle ivory tones, evoking a sense of timeless elegance and understated luxury.

The central field is dominated by a large, intricate medallion motif composed of stylized floral and geometric elements, arranged with symmetrical precision. The design incorporates soft floral sprays and vine patterns, rendered with delicate detailing that speaks to expert craftsmanship. These motifs are framed by an elegant border composed of complementary patterns that echo the central theme, featuring blossoms, palmettes, and fine linear elements, all intricately balanced to create visual rhythm.

Woven using a fine wool pile on a sturdy cotton foundation, the rug displays the characteristic thick and plush texture of Oushak carpets, offering both comfort and durability. The natural dyes used have aged gracefully, resulting in a warm patina that enhances the antique appeal of the piece. Subtle tonal variations and gentle fading across the surface lend the rug a distinct character and depth, testament to its age and careful preservation.

This rug embodies the classic Oushak style with its large-scale motifs, soft color scheme, and sumptuous handwoven quality. It would be a distinguished addition to any interior, offering both historical resonance and decorative sophistication.
