Oushak / 16662

This Oushak antique rug measures 10' 10" x 15' 3" and is rendered in a softened palette of pink, red, ivory, turquoise, and gold. The field carries an open, timeworn rhythm of medallion forms, floral sprays, and small geometric accents, framed by a cream border that adds brightness and structure. Its wool surface shows low distress with graceful fading and an easy, lived-in hand. Circa 1900 - 1920, it balances warmth and restraint, with the expansive composition holding together through nuanced wear and a gently faded, atmospheric finish. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
