Description

Woven in the late 19th Century in Anatolia, western Turkey, these exquisite hand-woven carpets have been produced since the start of the Ottoman period (1300-1922).  The mid to late 19th century examples such as this became more open and decorative in design and were commissioned more for the Western market in the US and Europe and have since rivalled the look of the famous Ziegler carpets from Persia.  With a muted natural colour wool background colour and faded burnt oranges and sage green dyes, the palette on this antique Ushak carpet is traditional with a contemporary feel.

In near perfect original condition, this Ushak has a dense wool pile all over.  Washed and ready to be used, supplied with our tough anti-slip underlay which aids the carpet considerably, stopping movement on any floor type.

FAQs

Ushak carpets originate from the town of Ushak in western Anatolia, Turkey, and are historically renowned for their oversized floral motifs, luminous wool, and distinctive muted colour palettes.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often utilizing asymmetrical knots and natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and insects.

Authenticity is identified by examining the irregularities in the hand-spun wool, the organic variations in vegetable dyes, the construction of the knotting on the reverse, and the natural patina of age.

An antique carpet can anchor modern minimalist furniture by providing texture, warmth, and historical contrast, serving as a focal point in a living room, study, or bedroom.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional hand washing by textile specialists when necessary, and keeping the rug out of direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent dye fading.
