51618 New Modern Turkish Oushak Rug, 09'11 x 13'02.
A masterful fusion of Arts & Crafts elegance and Anatolian weaving traditions, this hand-knotted wool Turkish Oushak rug is a celebration of rhythmic form and organic beauty. Drawing inspiration from the visionary designs of William Morris and C.F.A. Voysey, its composition exudes the grace of the late 19th-century Arts & Crafts Movement, where nature was reimagined in stylized, flowing patterns. The field is adorned with an enchanting ogival pattern, a mesmerizing interplay of interlocking arches and stylized botanical elements that seem to ripple across the surface like a tableau of timeless elegance.
The delicate artistry of this Oushak rug is accentuated by its harmonious earth-tone palette, where muted sage, tranquil taupe, and warm terra cotta intertwine to create a sense of depth and movement. Each motif, rendered with the meticulous craftsmanship of Anatolian weavers, echoes the hand-drawn quality of Morris & Voysey’s textiles, where the natural world is distilled into a perfect balance of geometry and fluidity. The all-over pattern, unanchored by a central medallion, allows the eye to wander freely, capturing new details at every glance—a hallmark of Arts & Crafts design, which sought to harmonize art with function.
Framing the lush expanse of the field is an exquisite botanical border, where calyxes, open blossoms, and twining vinery create an enchanting perimeter. This flourishing vinework, reminiscent of Morris’s intricate wallpaper motifs, is flanked by an inner and outer guard band, lending a sense of refinement and structure. The border’s graceful movement, with its delicate tendrils curling like ink on parchment, brings a painterly softness to the Oushak rug, as if the vines were gently swaying in an unseen breeze.
A true modern homage to the Arts & Crafts aesthetic, this Turkish Oushak rug is more than a decorative textile—it is an artistic statement, a woven reverie where past and present intertwine. Whether placed in a period home steeped in historical charm or a contemporary space seeking a touch of timeless elegance, this piece invites an atmosphere of warmth, sophistication, and artistic poetry. It is a testament to the enduring beauty of handwoven craftsmanship, where every knot carries the whisper of tradition and the spirit of artistic revival.
