Oversized Antique Turkish Oushak in Red with Blue Floral Medallion - Rug & Kilim
Hand-knotted in wool and originating from Turkey circa 1890-1910, this 14x15 oversized antique Oushak rug is a remarkable example of the celebrated Anatolian weaving tradition, an elegant and spacious piece among Rug & Kilim’s most compelling curations of antique Oushak carpets.On the Design: Admirers of the craft will immediately recognize the hallmarks that make Oushak rugs so prized among antique Oriental carpets. This piece features a bold central medallion composition, rendered in soft sky-blue tones that sit beautifully against a warm coral-red field. The medallion radiates outward through stylized geometric floral forms and palmettes, creating a balanced yet dynamic focal point that anchors the entire design. Surrounding the medallion, a series of graceful botanical motifs, including abstract blossoms, curling vines, and geometric floral elements, populate the field in a manner typical of late 19th-century Anatolian weaving. These motifs display the charming irregularity and artistic freedom that collectors admire in antique Oushaks, lending the rug an organic and expressive character.The border frames the composition with a harmonious array of repeating floral patterns rendered in softer ivory and pale blue hues. This interplay of colors creates a palette that is both vibrant and refined. Over time, the natural wool dyes have developed a gentle patina, softening the colors and enhancing the rug’s vintage charm.Oversized Oushak rugs of this scale are especially prized for their ability to command large interior spaces while maintaining the approachable elegance that defines the style. The combination of spacious composition, luminous color palette, and masterful Anatolian craftsmanship makes this rug a particularly graceful and collectible example of the genre.Condition: This antique oversized Turkish Oushak rug further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
