On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will appreciate Oushaks for their delicious and unexpected design choices among other Oriental rugs of their caliber. The design features large-scale palmette forms articulated through subtle linear definition. The rug’s playful palette—employing soft pink hues and gold tones with accents of orange—are exemplary for some of the most beautiful colors Oushaks are known for, with a particularly feminine sensibility often attributed to the provenance. The same variety of tones can be found in the thick main border surrounding the piece, which enjoy similar palmettes in floral meanders. Keen eyes will further admire the rich, lush texture of the wool, which has aged beautifully particularly beautifully considering the rug’s age. It’s an exquisite choice for the traits that Oushaks are celebrated for—from the uniquely feminine undertone to the more approachable, yet still regal sensibility it achieves—a grand collectible in a gracious size one might only rarely encounter today.

Condition:

This antique Oushak rug further enjoys pristine condition for its age and lineage. See less
