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.

This 1880 antique Ottoman Turkish area rug is a hand-knotted Oushak wool and cotton carpet in an imposing square format. The piece displays a rich teal field patterned with winged creatures flying among tumbling leaves, flowers, and vines, centred around a stepped medallion. A wide compound cream and gold border frames the design, decorated with floral palmettes and additional winged motifs in tones of orange and pink. Measuring 392 cm high by 349 cm wide, the carpet shows light wear consistent with its period. Suitable for an English Country House aesthetic, the rug works well as a substantial floor covering in a spacious living room, dining room, or entrance hall. The wool and cotton construction provides a durable surface underfoot while introducing traditional textile artistry to an interior scheme. The balanced composition and muted tones integrate comfortably with diverse interior furnishings and traditional decor arrangements.

FAQs

Oushak carpets originate from Western Anatolia and are distinguished by their soft, muted colour palettes, large-scale floral medallion patterns, and relatively low knot density woven with silky wool.

Traditional Oushak carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile on a cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, dyed with natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authentic antique pieces feature soft vegetable-dyed colours with natural abrash tonal variations, pliable construction, asymmetrical Ghiordes knots, and characteristic curvilinear floral or stepped medallion designs.

Designers frequently use Oushak rugs to anchor living rooms and dining halls, pairing their muted tones with contemporary neutral upholstery or traditional dark wood furniture to provide texture and pattern.

Antique wool carpets should be vacuumed gently without a rotating brush, rotated annually to even out wear, placed over a quality rug pad, and professionally dry-cleaned by a specialist oriental rug conservator.
