Western Anatolian weavers worked at large scale on open fields, with palmettes and cloudbands set far apart in a madder and apricot palette, and with a drawing that tolerates asymmetry. Star and medallion Oushaks put the floral units into a repeating lattice rather than a single centered design. This is the drawing European painters put under their sitters' feet in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and it remains the most forgiving floral pattern to live with.

Six sizes are made, the smallest 80 × 150 cm (2'7\" × 4'11\") and the largest 250 × 350 cm (8'2\" × 11'6\"), and an 80 cm runner three meters long.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOushak is the weaving town of western Anatolia whose rugs turn up in sixteenth-century European paintings, which is roughly how long its drawing has been copied. What has been changed here is not the pattern but the palette: blue and gray in place of the reds and golds the old Oushaks used, so a design that would otherwise announce itself instead stays level with the room. Put it with pale walls, light oak and off-white upholstery and the effect is open and cool. Put the same rug with dark furniture and the blue turns emphatic. The pattern carries cultural weight and the color does not, which is the reason this one sells to people who say they do not like patterned rugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWool makes the surface, over a cotton warp, laid down on the loom at medium depth and packed tightly enough that a corner picked up has real weight to it. The workshops that weave it were knotting by hand two generations ago and now do the structural work mechanically. A tree of life is woven into every rug in the series, and that is the mark by which a Tempus piece is told from a copy. It is not hand-knotting and the house does not sell it as such.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWoven on looms in western Anatolia, near the Aegean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWool surface on a cotton warp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA classical Oushak drawing in blue over a gray ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium depth, dense weave, easy to vacuum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA tree of life is woven into every rug in the series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSix sizes: 80 × 150, 130 × 190, 160 × 230, 200 × 300 and 250 × 350 cm, and an 80 cm runner at 300 cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSend it to a rug washer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSixteenth-century drawing, twenty-first-century color, and the join between them is the whole of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HALICIZADE","offers":[{"title":"Blue \/ 80 X 150","offer_id":47506826297577,"sku":"HALTEM000004.04","price":13500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue \/ 80 X 300","offer_id":47506826330345,"sku":"HALTEM000004.05","price":26500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue \/ 130 X 190","offer_id":47506826363113,"sku":"HALTEM000004.06","price":27500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue \/ 160 X 230","offer_id":47506826264809,"sku":"HALTEM000004.03","price":40500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue \/ 200 X 300","offer_id":47506826199273,"sku":"HALTEM000004.01","price":66000.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 250 X 350","offer_id":47506826232041,"sku":"HALTEM000004.02","price":96500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/9682\/4258\/files\/UsakDesenliMaviMakineDokumaHali_1.jpg?v=1720019216"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/9682\/4258\/collections\/Cicekli_hali_modelleri.jpg?v=1784440594","url":"https:\/\/www.halicizade.com\/en\/collections\/floral-rug.oembed?page=7","provider":"HALICIZADE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
