Oushak / 19114

This Oushak antique rug measures 4' 2" x 9' 6" and presents a long, narrow field with an unusually graphic balance of warmth and restraint. A saturated red border frames a cream ground scattered with small, stylised motifs in blush, saffron, olive, and charcoal, while geometric guard bands lend structure at the edges. The wool surface shows light wear and softened colour that speak to age without losing clarity. Circa 1950 - 1970, it carries the quiet character and design fluency that define the best Oushak rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
