This Oushak antique rug, measuring 112 x 142 cm, presents a worn yet composed palette of cream, white, warm brown, muted terracotta, and olive. The design centres on a stepped field with scattered geometric and floral motifs, then unfolds into layered borders of zigzags, blossoms, and narrow linear bands. Medium distress and visible fading have softened the pattern across the surface, giving the rug a calm, timeworn presence. Circa 1880 - 1900, it reflects the enduring grace and decorative depth of Oushak weaving, with a grounded, understated finish. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
