Gracefully aged and visually composed, this 5'9" x 8'10" hand knotted Oushak wool rug embodies the relaxed sophistication of an antique-inspired floor covering. Crafted from wool with a low 0.25-inch pile, the surface is intentionally distressed to replicate the character of a timeworn heirloom rug while preserving strength and longevity for everyday residential use. The pattern unfolds in a structured allover grid of stylized Oushak motifs, carefully framed by a subtle border that lends architectural balance. A warm beige foundation is layered with softly faded peach, slate, and moss tones, enhanced by natural abrash and gentle color variation. The restrained palette and softened outlines reflect the aesthetic favored in transitional and modern American interiors seeking vintage appeal without heaviness. Short, refined fringe ends maintain a clean finish, while the cotton foundation ensures stability. Ideal as a living room rug, dining room rug, or bedroom area rug, this antique-look Oushak rug delivers understated luxury and timeless craftsmanship. Key Details & Features -

Story Behind the Art: Oushak rugs originate from the historic town of Ushak in west-central Anatolia, Turkey, a region celebrated for producing some of the most influential hand-knotted rugs in the world. These rugs are admired for their exceptional wool texture, expansive compositions, and timeless elegance, making them highly sought after in both traditional and modern interiors. Oushak designs are easily recognized by their large-scale geometric patterns, often arranged around prominent central medallions, repeating all-over medallions, or softly scattered motifs featuring vine scrolls, palmettes, and stylized florals. Woven using lustrous, high-quality wool, Oushak rugs favor muted earth tones, including soft ivories, warm beiges, sage greens, faded blues, and gentle golds. Their restrained palettes and generous spacing make them incredibly versatile, allowing them to complement a wide range of interior styles, from classic European to contemporary American homes. Today, Oushak rugs remain a cornerstone of luxury Oriental rug design in the U.S. market.
