Usak,a historic city in Western Analolia, is also the name given to a group of carpets that were extremely famous as Ottoman palace or court carpets from the 15th - 16th C onwards.The designs are principally rows of medallions with split-leaf arabesques, vine scrolls, and floral motifs whose execution sometimes approaches the naturalistic.The ground fiels colous are typically red or dark blue, though white is known to occur on rarer occasions.These uniquely designed carpets are now being reproduced by various carpet weaving centres, using strong glossy wools , natural dyes and large soft naturalistic patterening.Modern Usak carpets represent a group of carpets that are proving to be very popular in todays markets .
