Many of the masterpieces of the 15th and 16th centuries were attributed to Oushak, often depicted in paintings by Lorenzo Lotto and Hans Holbein the Younger, placed in a way to suggest status. In the European markets, the earlier types and patterns of Turkish carpets are now often called "Lotto carpets" and "Holbein carpets". Known also for star and medallion patterns, the luxurious Oushak rugs are made from a characteristically silky, luminous wool, creating an understated beauty. Custom sizes available upon request.
