53683 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug, 06'04 x 10'06. This hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug presents a serene tableau, deeply rooted in nature’s embrace, epitomizing the principles of Biophilic Design through its organic patterns and earth-toned palette. Central to its design is a concentric stepped lozenge medallion, which draws the eye inward, symbolizing stability and harmony within the natural world. The medallion's intricate layering and soft pastel hues of mauve and green create a calm focal point, around which the rest of the rug’s elements gracefully unfold.
Surrounding the medallion, the field is a soft mauve, a color choice that evokes the gentle warmth of dawn. This choice complements the nature-inspired theme, providing a lush backdrop for the more vivid botanical elements that decorate the corner spandrels. These motifs, meticulously woven, showcase a love for the natural world, depicting stylized flowers and vines that bring an element of the outdoors into any living space.
The Oushak rug's border further emphasizes this connection to nature through a detailed botanical pattern flanked by dual carnation meander guard bands. These bands, symbolic of longevity and continuity, encapsulate a series of delicate floral motifs that resonate with the rug’s overall theme of timeless elegance. The botanical motifs, combined with the earth-tone colors, reinforce the rug’s naturalistic inspiration, making it a perfect fit for an interior that values subtlety and the inherent beauty of the natural world.
Finally, the rectangular endcaps running along the width of the vintage Oushak rug feature a unique design element—trees of life superimposed onto green ziggurat mounds. This distinctive feature not only enhances the rug's visual appeal but also imbues it with a deeper meaning, celebrating life’s growth and the enduring strength found in nature. The entire composition of this Oushak rug, from its color palette to its symbolic patterns, offers a piece that is both a tribute to the natural world and a splendid artifact of Turkish weaving artistry, suitable for any collector or interior emphasizing biophilic and organic modern designs.
Rendered in variegated shades of tan, mauve, green, ecru, khaki, amethyst, and sand with other accent colors.
