Oushak / 12431

A saturated red field defines this Oushak, worked in warm wool with crisp cream and white outlines and yellow accents. The composition centers on an octagonal medallion flanked by angular, serrated-hook motifs and restrained corner spandrels, the border presenting small geometric repeats and subtle neutral grounds. Surface wear is minimal and the pile reads soft and velvety to the eye; tonal shifts lend a lived-in depth without loss of clarity. This antique rug reads intimate and tactile, a modest scale that reveals its craft in proportion and colour. Circa 1950 - 1970. Exact size: 1' 9" x 2' 5".
