Originating from Oushak in western Turkey, this region boasts the longest continuous rug-weaving tradition, dating back to at least the mid-15th century. Oushak has always been commercially oriented, supplying a range of rugs—from small scatter rugs to large carpets—for both the Turkish/Ottoman domestic market and exports to Britain and America. Notably, the best-known portrait of George Washington features an Oushak rug beneath him and his family, highlighting its esteemed status. Over time, these carpets have evolved to reflect changing tastes and trends. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Persian or Persianate patterns were incorporated, and sizes adapted to fit Western room dimensions. Colors include brick, seafoam, gold, and orange. less
