This vintage Turkish Oushak rug features a large central medallion with elegant open latticework and soft floral details in pale green and gold, placed on a gentle beige field. Corner spandrels echo the medallion with smaller hooked motifs and scrolling vines, while multiple wide borders contain repeating stylized flowers and geometric guards in muted tones. The overall design is spacious and airy with gentle fading that gives the piece a calm, aged appearance typical of vintage Oushak weavings.
Oushak rugs from the mid-20th century often use lighter palettes and more open patterns than older antique versions, blending traditional Ottoman influences with a modern, relaxed feel. Natural dyes and fine wool pile create subtle color variations and a soft texture that deepens with time. This example’s transitional style makes it versatile while keeping the classic Oushak elegance.
Well-suited for smaller living rooms, bedrooms, or reading nooks where it can sit under a coffee table or beside a bed. The neutral beige tones and soft accents bring quiet sophistication to any space, pairing beautifully with light wood furniture or minimalist decor. Its durable wool construction and vintage condition ensure comfortable use with a lovely patina.
