Oushak / 16442

This Oushak antique rug measures 10' 0" x 12' 4" and carries a softly faded field of ivory, blush, saffron, terracotta, and muted aqua. The allover composition blends floral medallions, angular vinework, and a layered border that frames the design with quiet rhythm. Wool lends a supple, tactile surface, while the low distress preserves clarity in the motifs and a mellow, lived-in presence. Circa 1895 - 1910, it reflects the spacious drawing and sun-washed palette associated with Oushak rugs, balancing ornament with restraint and an easy sense of age. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
