Antique Ushak Carpet

19th century
Description

Wow! This gorgeous teal green antique Ushak carpet is full of amazing colours and interesting motifs! Stylised animals, plants and leaves, a feast for the eyes!  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.

In near perfect original condition, this Ushak has a lovely dense wool pile all over.  Professionally washed and ready to be used, we supply our tough anti-slip underlay which aids the carpet considerably, stopping movement on any floor type and preserves the condition.  A fabulous large size, ideal for a drawing room, entrance hall, dining room or bedroom, these decorative antique carpets can be placed in any room to add character and immense colour.

Our home visits are available nationwide, please contact us to make an appointment.  It can also be viewed at our barn showroom in Crondall, Surrey by appointment too.

If you would like to reserve this Ushak carpet for your project or home, please use this service available so you do not miss out on it.

This late 19th-century antique Ushak carpet originates from Anatolia and follows the Ottoman style. Woven from wool, the piece displays a deep blue central field populated by multi-coloured stylised bird motifs, floral palmettes, and a cream diamond medallion, all enclosed within intricate geometric borders in shades of ochre, pink, and cream. The hand-knotted textile exhibits a dense pile and an overall balanced composition typical of carpets produced for Western markets during the period. The carpet measures 489 cm high, 348 cm wide, and 1 cm deep. In a contemporary interior, the floor covering is suited for placement in a drawing room, entrance hall, dining room, or bedroom to introduce traditional patterns and varied tones to the space.

FAQs

Originating from the town of Usak in Western Anatolia, these carpets are characterised by their distinctive colour palettes, large-scale floral or medallion designs, and specific knotting techniques prominent since the Ottoman era.

Authentic Ushak carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and warp foundation, coloured with natural vegetable and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces feature Turkish knots, a supple handle with a moderately loose weave, grand central medallions, stylized floral or animal motifs, and soft natural colouration.

The balanced tones and graphic medallion pattern of an Ushak carpet ground living rooms or dining spaces, pairing effectively with both dark mahogany period furniture and minimalist contemporary pieces.

Vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to ensure even wear, address spills immediately by blotting with a clean dry cloth, and utilise specialist rug cleaning services when required.
