Oushak rugs originated in the small town of Oushak in west-central Anatolia, just south of Istanbul, Turkey. The designs are highly influenced by Persian designs and were highly favored in the Ottoman Empire. They are typically based on large scale geometric or floral motifs. The dyes tend toward muted earth tones, gold, blue, green, ivory or grey. Today, modern interpretations of the Oushak are being created in various rug weaving centers of the world.
