Antique Turkish Oushak Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
Antique rugs from the renowned Oushak weaving center are the pride of Turkish craftsmanship. Carefully executed of high quality materials, they are distinguished by remarkable durability which ensures their good condition for centuries in the service of beauty. The antique Turkish Oushak rug before your eyes is a perfect example of this truly timeless artistry.
The main field of the antique carpet is occupied by an extensive medallion with botanical overtones, surrounded by a delicate mesh of flowering vines and four corner spandrels. Everything is enclosed within a series of equally blooming borders with smaller floral medallions and flowering climbers. Gentle and nature-related, the design is rendered in a particularly fashionable color palette of dusty shades, including sepia, pink and beige. The Turkish rug will be a perfect complement to a wide array of interior arrangements, from classic to contemporary.
Finally, it is time to focus on the before-mentioned, impeccable workmanship. The body of the Oushak rug was thoroughly knotted by hand of supreme wool by an apt artisan. Such a diligent approach paid off not only in longevity but also in a dense and reliable structure of the pile that does not shed yarns. Under the condition of proper maintenance, the antique Turkish Oushak rug will have a chance to ooze its recherché charm for generation without any signs of wear.
