51363 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug, 05'02 x 11'04.

This hand knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug captivates with its exquisite blend of traditional design and vibrant, expressive coloration. The Oushak rug's bold, abrashed red field serves as a dramatic backdrop to the strikingly detailed central medallion and ornamental corner pieces, each featuring intricate geometric and botanical motifs. The central medallion, a masterpiece of design symmetry, is  anchored by blooming lotus pendants at either end. Radiating from the center of the medallion is a serrated lozenged with a superimposed cross motif surrounded by rosettes, tulips, boteh and botanical elements floating on on a crisp ivory background that makes the colors pop vividly.

The angular meander border of the Oushak rug complements its rich interior with a more subdued palette, featuring an array of multicolored geometric shapes on a neutral tan background. This contrasting frame not only enhances the central composition but also adds depth and complexity to the overall design. The meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every knot, showcasing the weaver's skill in blending color and form to create a piece that is both visually striking and harmonious.

Hand-knotted from fine wool, this Oushak rug exemplifies the enduring craftsmanship traditional to Turkish textiles. The wool's natural luster and resilience contribute to the rug's luxurious feel and enduring quality. Over time, the wool has developed a gentle patina, softening the vivid hues into warm tones that suggest the passage of time and the rug's storied past.

Perfect for enriching a modern or traditional setting, this vintage Oushak rug is not merely a decorative item but a piece of art that brings history and character into any space. Its dynamic and bold design makes it a focal point in a living room, grand foyer, or hallway, inviting admiration and conversation. This woven wonder can blend beautifully with both contemporary and classic interiors, adding a touch of elegance and cultural depth.
