5×7 oushak turkish antique area rug

Among the many types of Turkish carpets, oushak rugs are a subset. These vibrant textiles are from the village of Oushak in Turkey’s west central Anatolia region, south of Istanbul. This style of Oriental carpet is ancient and very high quality. As a result, they favor intricate patterns and rich, earthy tones, such as shades of red and brown.

Blue, Peach, and Red are available in our 5×7 oushak turkish antique area rug. Oushak rugs are often woven from a smooth, soft, brilliant wool-cotton combination. The general public perceives them to be peaceful and subdued.

Materials, texture, and weaving

Since they consider the carpet’s quality and aesthetic appeal, Oushak carpets are widely recognized as among the best in the world. This 5×7 oushak turkish antique area rug dates back hundreds of years and is woven from cotton and wool. Weaving’s two most important characteristics are the density and the size of the knots.

Knowing the quality of the rug’s knotting is essential before making a purchase. A carpet with poorly made knots won’t last nearly as long as one with well-tied knots.

Design

These carpets are some of the most significant ever made. All Turkish carpets, including Oushak rugs, are woven with a symmetrical knot. The Ghiordes knot (also known as the symmetric knot) can be found predominantly throughout Europe, the Caucasus, Iran, and Asia Minor.

The knots of an old Oushak rug are usually somewhat sloppy. Thereby, they will be more adaptable. A silky, high-quality wool is used to create long and colorful heaps. Stars and medallions are two of the most common motifs in ancient oushak rugs. Due to its massive size, soothing design, and vibrant hues, this 5×7 oushak turkish antique area rug is truly one of a kind.
