Oushak / 20222

This Oushak antique rug, 345 x 345 cm, is worked in a muted palette of neutral beige, faded red, cream, and white. The design remains softly legible, with an allover field that has worn down over time and only fragments of the border still visible around the perimeter. Woven in wool, its high distress creates a calm, time-softened surface with faded colour shifts and a dry, tactile handle. Circa 1900 - 1920, it has the patina and visual restraint that define an antique rug shaped by age and use. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
