Oushak / 14530

This Oushak antique rug measures 9' 8" x 12' 7" and carries the soft restraint so often associated with the type. Woven in wool, its pale ground is layered with a faded floral field and a quiet border, allowing the drawing to emerge and recede with ease. The surface has a calm, time-softened hand, with medium distress that lends depth without overpowering the composition. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reads as airy, understated, and deeply lived-in, with a tonal palette that feels both luminous and grounded. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
