Beautifully Decorative And Large Antique Turkish Oushak Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Turkish rug, Circa Date: 1880 – The delicate, soft colors and texture of this Turkish Oushak rug are the perfect touch for today’s color palette. It was created in the 1880s at a time when an attempt was underway to restore the rug industry to its former glory.

The artists of this revival period relied on ancestral patterns and techniques. Oushak has a history as one of the prominent rug weaving cities in western Anatolia. Rugs from Oushak were some of the first to be found in Europe as trade carpets and diplomatic gifts. Many of the traditional designs and motifs originated from Oushak.

This Turkish carpet has a fine weave, which allows for a high level of detail. Towards the end of the 19th century, European and American interior decorators took a renewed interest in the beautiful rugs from this region.

Oushak designs range from formal, resembling those from the weaving centers and schools nearby to more primitive designs. This design uses an all-over pattern. It seems to be the spontaneous creation of the weaver. This piece reflects the individual design choices as the weaver created it.

This rug is the perfect addition to a Millennia Pink, peach, salmon, or other popular, modern room color. The hues of this rug have softened over time, giving it a shabby chic, vintage feel. It has a timeless and global character that will blend into a traditional or Boho chic room perfectly. It would also add a point of contrast to a modern room where it will soften the lines and add a cozy feel.

This rug has an earthiness in its colors and design that will bring a touch of nature indoors. It would make the perfect addition to a garden-themed room with its vibrant floral tones. Oushak rugs are once again finding their way into contemporary interiors as the main focal point of the room. This piece could be the inspiration for a breathtaking design in any room of the home.
