Distressed Vintage Turkish Oushak Runner
3'6" x 6'9" | 106 cm x 206 cm
OVERVIEW
This exceptional Turkish Oushak rug, crafted circa 1940s, is hand-knotted wool on a cotton foundation with a low pile/shaved texture. This piece features a sophisticated palette of beige and powder blue, with warm brown and taupe accents.
COLORS & DETAILS
The field presents a soft beige base with delicate powder blue accents. Warm brown tones emerge in the border, while taupe details complement the overall design.
PHOTOGRAPHY NOTE
Our product photography preserves absolute authenticity - studio photographs capture the rug's true colors, while our showroom lifestyle images, captured in natural sunlight, carry a warmer tone. We believe in presenting our pieces exactly as they are, without digital enhancement or retouching.
CONDITION
This vintage treasure has been professionally cleaned and prepared for its new home. As with all handcrafted vintage pieces, subtle variations in pattern and texture speak to its authentic character rather than serve as imperfections. Any delivery creases will naturally settle within days of laying flat. We recommend allowing the rug to breathe in fresh air (and gentle sunlight if possible) for a few hours after delivery, as organic wool benefits from this natural conditioning process.

Heritage and Craftsmanship
The Oushak region of Turkey is renowned for its distinguished weaving heritage, particularly celebrated for rugs that blend spiritual symbolism with artistic expression. These pieces reflect centuries of tradition, combining cultural significance with practical beauty.
Design Elements
The design features a minimalist prayer rug layout with a subtle central medallion. The simple arch-like frame, characteristic of Turkish prayer rugs, symbolizes the mihrab (prayer niche). The main border showcases a repeating geometric pattern typical of Oushak weaving, representing protection and continuity. Small floral elements appear at key points in the design, traditionally symbolizing paradise gardens in Islamic art, while the natural aging has created a serene, understated palette that enhances its contemplative character.
Placement
The 3'6" x 6'9" dimensions make this runner perfect for hallways, entryways, or alongside furniture pieces. The gentle palette of beige and powder blue creates a calming atmosphere while providing subtle visual interest.
Care Recommendations
To preserve the rug's beauty:
Rotate periodically for even wear
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting
Address spills immediately by blotting, never rubbing
Professional cleaning recommended annually
Avoid direct sunlight to maintain color integrity
Oushak runners are celebrated for their distinctive patterns and durable construction. These pieces bring both cultural richness and practical elegance to transitional spaces in the home.
