Description from the seller

Vintage Turkish Oushak Overdyed Rug – Turquoise Blue – 244 × 122 cm – Hand-Knotted Carpet
A striking vintage Turkish Oushak overdyed rug from Anatolia, distinguished by its vibrant turquoise-blue colour and clearly visible traditional medallion design.

Measuring 244 × 122 cm (approximately 8 × 4 ft), this vintage hand-knotted carpet combines the craftsmanship and decorative composition of an older Turkish rug with the distinctive appearance of a professionally overdyed textile.

The original design remains remarkably visible beneath the turquoise colour treatment. A large and elaborate central floral medallion dominates the field, complemented by ornamental corner motifs and a traditional patterned border.

The dark remnants of the original design contrast beautifully against the vivid turquoise ground, creating an almost graphic effect while preserving the visual identity of the original carpet.

One of the strongest characteristics of this carpet is the preservation of its original central medallion and border pattern, which remain clearly visible beneath the turquoise overdyed surface.

The carpet displays variations in pile, texture and colour intensity consistent with its vintage character and overdyed treatment. These variations are integral to the appearance of the piece rather than modern manufacturing defects.

The carpet has been professionally washed and cleaned and is ready for use.

Its combination of traditional Turkish craftsmanship, clearly defined floral medallion and striking turquoise colour gives this carpet a strong decorative presence, particularly in contemporary, eclectic and design-focused interiors.

Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description and clearly show the colour, original pattern, distressed surface and overall vintage condition.

Carefully packed for tracked shipping.
