Oushak / 15700

This Oushak antique rug measures 457 x 620 cm and presents a broad, softened geometry in wool. A central medallion holds the composition, surrounded by stepped diamonds, hooked tribal motifs, and small floral devices that settle into a finely layered border. The palette moves through neutral, blue, white, cream, and faded red, with age wear and fading giving the surface a calm, well-lived character. Medium distress leaves the design legible yet mellowed. Circa 1880 - 1920, it has the restrained complexity and worn depth associated with an Oushak antique rug, shaped by time into something quietly architectural.
