Description

52444 Vintage Turkish Oushak Rug with American Craftsman Tribal Style 03'03 x 05'01. Imbued with Anatolian symbolism, this hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug with American Craftsman Style charms with classic, tribal appeal, and would be at home among natural wood furnishings and traditional interiors. An octagonal medallion anchors a red hexagonal center field surrounded by abrashed verdigris colored spandrels. The center star motif represents happiness meanwhile two end-pieces feature colorful Kotchanak finials each set with a short iteration of tree of life motifs. Rams head motifs further set the center field representing fertility, heroism, power and masculinity. It is enclosed with a wide border composed of Kotchanak motifs and rosettes in alternating colors. Derived from the virility of the Ram's Horn motif, the Kotchanak is also a fertility symbol. The Classic Elibelinde motif, also known as the “hands on hips” or goddess motif, is thought to represent motherhood and fertility while ram’s horns represent masculinity and power. The fertility bereket motifs that appear combine the symbols of both man and woman, often referred to as ram’s Horn and hands-on-hips motifs, into one design with a diamond in the centre found in the outer guard band. Steeped in Anatolian history and culture, this evocative vintage Oushak runner’s rich symbolism, well-harmonized colors, and bold design combine to create a truly wonderful piece that would enliven nearly any interior. Noble and enchanting this vintage Oushak rug is successful across a variety of design applications. Perfect for a grand foyer, designer entryway, home office, private library, conservatory, wine cellar, executive suite, stair landing, galley kitchen, grand parlor, theater room, royal suite, billiards room, game room, bedroom, study, sitting room, sunroom or it would make a lovely accent next to a buffet in a dining room or behind the sofa table in the living room.
