Antique Oushak Turkish Allover Geometric Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1920 BB5861 7'7" × 13'0" $14,000

This antique Oushak Turkish rug, hand-knotted in wool circa 1920, reflects the relaxed weaving tradition of western Anatolia. Its classic taupe ground and softly aged surface give the piece a restrained, collectible character that feels both grounded and refined.

The design is organized around a series of angular medallions set on a central axis, with smaller linked geometric forms creating a subtle trellis effect. Rather than relying on dense ornament, the composition leaves generous breathing room in the field, allowing the repeated motifs to read with clarity and rhythm. A framed border of small-scale geometric detail completes the layout with quiet definition.

Dark brown patterning and warm tan accents emerge gently from the neutral background, producing the kind of tonal contrast that suits layered interiors. The overall effect is calm and architectural, making this antique Turkish rug especially effective in traditional, transitional, or contemporary spaces that benefit from texture, history, and understated structure.

Part of Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this antique rug stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional weaving artistry.
