Oushak / 17593

This Oushak antique rug measures 183 x 274 cm and is rendered in a pale, weathered palette of cream, ivory, soft white, and warm red. Its composition is open and softly structured, with a centred medallion, fine floral detailing, and a border that has worn down into a gentle visual frame. Wool gives the surface a supple, tactile hand, and the medium distress lends the whole piece a mellow, time-softened presence. Circa 1925 - 1940, it captures the understated grace often found in Oushak rugs, where delicate pattern and washed colour come together in an atmosphere of ease.
