Oushak Rug

Celebrated as one of the most influential weaving traditions of the Ottoman Empire, the Oushak (Uşak) carpet stands at the crossroads of Anatolian history and classical decorative art. Originating in western Turkey, Oushak rugs gained prominence from the 15th century onward, becoming renowned for their spacious compositions, softly muted palettes, and distinctive large-scale motifs. These qualities made them highly prized in Ottoman palaces, European courts, and, centuries later, timeless interior design.

Our Oushak Classic rug is a modern hand-knotted interpretation inspired by this historic tradition. While honoring the design language of classical Anatolian Oushaks, it is woven by skilled artisans using high-quality wool selected for durability, softness, and visual harmony. The wool’s natural lanolin content and long fibers allow color to develop with depth and clarity, bringing forward the gentle apricots, muted blues, sandy golds, and warm neutrals characteristic of traditional Oushak palettes.

The design reflects the hallmarks of classical Oushak artistry: expansive open fields, generously spaced medallions, stylized palmettes, and softly curving vines arranged in a relaxed, flowing composition. The thoughtful balance of scale and negative space—combined with the signature subdued hues—creates an atmosphere of calm, understated elegance that has defined Oushak rugs for centuries.

Hand-knotted using time-honored symmetrical knots and dyed through traditional workshop processes, the Oushak Classic offers effortless sophistication for living rooms, dining areas, bedrooms, and grand entry halls. It carries forward the artistic legacy of Anatolian Oushak weaving—reinterpreted through careful craftsmanship and designed to complement modern interiors while remaining deeply rooted in history.
