[description] => Oushak stands for the western Anatolian Turkish city, known for its rare collectible rugs handmade during the Ottoman Empire.

Ziegler stands for Ziegler and company, German based oriental rug importer which operated between 1880-1920. They originally produced and imported these precious carpets in the Mahal region in Iran, specifing to the locals the German and European taste.

OUSHAK AND PESHAWAR RUGS
Oushaks are hand-knotted rugs that originate from the town of Uşak in western Turkey, a region known for its rich rug weaving tradition that dates back hundreds of years. These rugs are among the most sought-after in the world — not just for their beauty, but for the history and craftsmanship woven into every piece.
One of the first things people notice about Oushaks is their signature color palette. They often feature soft, muted tones — think ivory, faded peach, warm grays, and pale blues — which give them an understated, almost ethereal feel. Their patterns are typically large-scale and open, with traditional motifs that feel timeless without overwhelming a space.
What truly sets Oushaks apart is the way they're made. Each rug is hand-knotted knot by knot by skilled artisans — a process that can take months depending on the size and detail. The wool is usually high quality and dyed with natural pigments, which age beautifully over time.
For our antique and antique-washed Oushaks, we go through an extensive stone-washing process — sometimes up to five times — to soften the colors, add depth, and give the rug that worn-in, vintage feel. They're often sun-dried, gently distressed, and in some cases even shaved to create a perfectly lived-in texture that feels both elevated and grounded.
Because each rug is handmade, no two are ever exactly alike. We carefully select every single one for its tone, design, and overall energy — so when you find an Oushak you love, you're not just getting a rug; you're bringing home a piece of artistry and heritage.
Whether it's anchoring a cozy living room, softening a serene bedroom, or layered in a more modern space, an Oushak adds warmth, texture, and timeless elegance. If you're looking for something with soul, character, and lasting quality — an Oushak is always a beautiful choice.
