Handmade Antique Ushak Carpet 1900s 315 x 287cm (10.3′ x 9.4′)

This rare antique Ushak carpet is a refined statement piece, valued for its age, harmony of colour, and highly unusual square format. Rugs of this size and shape are exceptionally difficult to source from the early 20th century, making this piece especially appealing to collectors and design-led interiors. The soft golden ground creates a warm, luminous base for the all-over bush design, where stylised shrub motifs repeat with gentle rhythm. The pattern feels calm and balanced rather than busy, giving the carpet an elegant presence that suits both traditional rooms and contemporary spaces. A delicate peach-toned floral border frames the field, softening the composition and adding a quiet decorative contrast. The palette is subtle and sophisticated, designed to age gracefully rather than dominate a room. Woven from handspun wool and coloured with natural dyes, the carpet carries a natural sheen and a lived-in patina that only time can create. Its condition reflects careful use and preservation, allowing the character of the piece to remain intact. Placed in a dining room, bedroom, or drawing room, this antique Ushak carpet works as a grounding element rather than a loud focal point. It is a piece chosen for taste, proportion, and long-term value, not trend.
