This antique Oushak rug, dating from 1880, originates from the Ottoman and traditional Turkish style tradition. Hand-knotted from wool and cotton, the textile displays an olive green field patterned with soft red, pink, and cream floral medallions, surrounded by a terracotta palmette border adorned with geometric vine scrolls. The surface presents naive floral motifs in multiple shades of apple green alongside red, pink, and cream hues. Measuring 120 cm by 216 cm, this carpet suits an English Country House interior aesthetic. Placed upon the floor in a living space or hallway, the piece brings traditional pattern and colour into domestic use.

Oushak rugs originate from the town of Usak in western Anatolia, known historically as a primary centre of Turkish carpet weaving since the Ottoman era. They are characterised by muted colour palettes, large-scale floral motifs, and a flexible, looser weave.

Traditional Oushak rugs are hand-knotted using high-grade hand-spun wool for the pile, knotted onto a wool or cotton foundation warp and weft. Natural dyes were historically employed to produce their distinct, harmonious shades.

Authentic pieces display a symmetric Ghiordes double knot, soft wool quality, and broad, open-scale floral or medallion motifs. Inspecting the underside reveals subtle irregularities in hand-spun yarn knotting and natural dye variations known as abrash.

Thanks to their soft palettes and open patterns, Oushak rugs bridge traditional and modern aesthetic schemes effortlessly. They are commonly placed beneath neutral seating arrangements, dining tables, or layered over natural fibre carpets to add texture and subtle colour.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating beater bar prevents fibre wear, while prompt spot cleaning with cold water and mild detergent manages spills. Rotating the rug annually ensures even tread wear and balanced sunlight exposure.
