Oushak Wool Carpet, Western Turkey, Circa 1880, 4.13m X 3.67m

19th century
Description

I often ask myself whether I could live with an item recently added to my inventory. In the case of this Oushak carpet, the answer is a resounding 'yes'! Dating to the last quarter of the 19th century, it has all the hallmarks of high Victorian taste. The warm harmonious colours and beautifully arranged design of stylised floral ornaments and leaves on an ivory field is highly decorative. I love the secondary colours in the field, the light blues, greens, soft reds and aubergines. But it is the amber border which really sets off the composition, and gives it a very modern twist. Note also the squarish dimensions which is ideal for enhancing all kinds of interior spaces. Professionally washed and restored, this lovely carpet is ideal decoration for many tastes and settings.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Oushak carpets originate from the town of Usak in Western Turkey, a primary centre of carpet weaving since the 15th century. They are recognised for their soft wool, large-scale geometric or floral motifs, and open field compositions influenced by Persian and Ottoman designs.

Traditional Oushak carpets are hand-knotted using local wool woven onto a wool warp and weft structure. The wool was historically dyed using natural vegetable and plant extracts, resulting in warm, saturated tones such as saffron, terracotta, and soft indigo.

Authentic late 19th-century Oushak carpets feature Ghiordes double knots, a relatively low knot density, and a soft, flexible handle. They display distinctive wide borders, repeating geometric medallion or palmette motifs, and subtle abrash colour variations inherent to natural dye batches.

An Oushak carpet serves as a foundational base in modern living rooms or dining areas, pairing effectively with neutral upholstered furniture. Its warm tones and graphic patterns complement contemporary minimalist decor as well as layered, eclectic interior schemes.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a rotating brush to prevent fibre damage. Rotate the carpet annually to ensure uniform wear and light exposure, and consult professional rug specialists for cleaning or structural repairs.
