This nineteenth century Turkish Ushak area rug originates from Western Anatolia and follows a traditional Anatolian style. Made from wool and cotton, the textile displays a prominent terracotta and teal colour palette alongside saffron and yellow tones. The hand-knotted piece exhibits geometric medallions, palmette motifs, and a complex floral border pattern running along the edges, showing visible signs of age across the patterned field. Fringe finishes the outer short ends of the weaving, while the surface wears a low pile typical of traditional floor coverings of this era. Measuring 312 cm high by 472 cm wide with a depth of 1 cm, the large format provides substantial floor coverage. Placed in an English Country House interior setting, the rug suits expansive living spaces, large reception rooms, or traditional studies where a durable, historically styled floor covering anchors the surrounding decor.

Ushak, or Oushak, rugs originate from the Usak region in western Turkey and are renowned for their hand-knotted wool pile, stylized geometric and floral motifs, and distinctive warm colour schemes.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool or cotton foundation warp and weft, traditionally dyed using vegetable and plant extracts.

Authentic pieces feature traditional Ghiordes double knots, natural abrash colour variations within the wool, flexible hand-bound edges, and the absence of machine stitching or synthetic backings.

They are placed centrally in living or dining areas to anchor contemporary furniture, using the warm terracotta and teal tones to add architectural depth and visual texture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar, rotate the rug annually to balance wear, and clear liquid spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth.
