A blue and rust Oushak carpet softens this master bath oasis
This 1915 Southern California master bathroom showcases the skill of Moroccan mosaic tile artists. The spectacular antique Oushak rug further compliments the Moorish designed spa. Located in Anatolia, the Turkish town of Oushak (Ushak) has been producing rugs since the 15th century. Antique carpets can be found at auctions and new reproductions are readily available on the retail market. Designs are predominantly geometric, with an allover pattern.
The rug’s classic soft blue coloring is a splendid compliment to the tilework while the red field provides a soothing backdrop to the large medallion. I especially like the way the picture above the fireplace mimics the colors of the rug and brings a touch of the red to eye level.
