Oushak Rugs: A Buyer’s Guide
Looking to elevate your home with a rug that brings together luxury, heritage, and softness underfoot? Oushak rugs—especially Angora Oushak styles—are a top choice among design lovers and collectors. Whether shopping for your first high-end rug or expanding your collection, this buyer's guide will help you discover why Anadol Rugs and traditional Turkish craftsmanship are worth the investment.
What Are Oushak Rugs?
Oushak rugs (also known as Ushak rugs) originate from the town of Uşak in western Turkey, a region with a deep heritage in hand-knotted rug weaving. These rugs are admired for their unique artistry, subtle color schemes, and exceptional craftsmanship, often using Angora wool to add elegance and softness.
What Is Angora Wool?
Angora wool comes from the Angora goat, a Turkish breed of domesticated goat known for producing Mohair—a silky, durable, and lustrous fiber. Despite common misconceptions, Angora wool does not come from Angora rabbits; it comes from the domestic goat of Turkey, and its fiber is simply called Angora. Angora goats have been raised for their luxurious wool for centuries, especially in Turkey's heartland. This makes Angora Oushak rugs not only a symbol of comfort but also of cultural authenticity.
Key Features of Oushak Rugs:
- Soft, faded tones like ivory, gold, sage, salmon and blue
- Hand-knotted with wool or premium Angora wool
- Classic Turkish medallion, vine, or floral motifs
- Luxuriously thick pile with a vintage, distressed aesthetic
