A Beautiful Modern Decorative Turkish Oushak Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Turkey, Circa Date: Modern  – This magnificent modern Oushak runner rug is created using traditions that go back hundreds of years. Oushak is a traditional carpet weaving center that dates back to the 15th and 16th centuries, where they created pieced that were admired by kings and noblemen. The court weavers of the Ottoman Empire created spectacular carpets that graced the floors of palaces and estates. Now, the Oushak weavers bring to you a collection of Modern Oushak Rugs that reflects the traditions of the past but in a way that is fresh and modern.

The artist used deep, cider space, cayenne, yellow ochre, red pepper, and a range of grays and browns to create a piece that is inspired by nature.

The rug uses gentle shifts in the colors to soften the look of the piece and to bring a grounded and balanced feel to the space. The Oushak weavers have a reputation for creating carpets that are soft and durable. They are also known for creating rugs that seem to have a glow, and that reflects the light in the room, making it lighter and giving it a more airy feel. This piece has a glow that it will carry into the rest of the room, only without being too overbearing.
