Usak - Rug - 352 cm - 217 cm - Vintage Turkish Oushak

Large Vintage Turkish Oushak Kilim – 352 × 217 cm – Handwoven – Ivory & Blue Geometric Motifs Description An impressive large vintage Oushak kilim from Western Anatolia, Turkey, traditionally handwoven and distinguished by its restrained geometric composition and unusually large dimensions. Measuring 352 × 217 cm (approximately 11.5 × 7.1 ft), the kilim covers approximately 7.64 m², making it a substantial example of traditional Anatolian flatweaving. The design is characterised by a light ivory / cream-coloured field decorated with rows of stylised geometric motifs. Deep blue motifs create the strongest visual contrast, complemented by softer beige, ochre and occasional rust-coloured elements. The relatively minimal composition is particularly attractive. Rather than using a dense medallion or floral pattern, the weaver created a rhythmic arrangement of individual geometric forms across the open field, resulting in a textile that appears both traditional and remarkably contemporary. A narrow dark blue geometric edging frames the composition and visually connects the repeated blue motifs throughout the field. Details Origin: Usak / Western Anatolia, Turkey Type: Vintage Turkish Oushak kilim Dimensions: 352 × 217 cm Approximate size: 11.5 × 7.1 ft Approximate area: 7.64 m² Technique: Traditional handwoven flatweave Design: Repeating traditional Anatolian geometric motifs Main colours: Ivory / cream and deep blue Accent colours: Beige, ochre and rust Condition: Vintage condition with age-related characteristics Cleaning: Professionally washed and cleaned Ready for use: Yes Subtle irregularities in the weave, colour and positioning of the motifs are characteristic of traditional handmade textiles and contribute to the individuality of the piece. The surface shows the naturally aged character expected from a genuine vintage textile. Any variations and signs of age visible in the photographs have been preserved rather than concealed. The kilim has been professionally washed and cleaned and is ready for use. Its combination of large dimensions, restrained geometric composition, unusual ivory-and-blue palette and traditional Anatolian craftsmanship gives this kilim a particularly strong decorative presence and makes it attractive both as a collectible textile and as a statement piece for a large interior. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description and clearly show the colours, weaving and vintage condition. Carefully packed for tracked shipping.
