Story Behind the Art: The Oushak rug tradition, originating from the ancient Anatolian town of U?ak in western Turkey, stands as one of the most influential legacies in Oriental weaving. Oushak rugs are celebrated for their generous scale, soft wool, and luminous color palettes—often in gentle hues of apricot, ivory, gold, and muted blue. Traditionally hand-knotted using lustrous wool on cotton foundations, these rugs feature grand medallions, floral palmettes, and sweeping vine scrolls arranged in balanced compositions. Their open, airy designs were favored by European aristocrats from the 15th century onward, and they continue to charm modern collectors seeking understated luxury, warmth, and heritage artistry.
