This authentic 1960s Oushak runner serves as a luminous bridge between mid-century Anatolian craftsmanship and contemporary interior aesthetics. Woven by village artisans for personal use in the Aegean region, this piece features a sophisticated, sun-faded palette that moves gracefully from warm apricot to vibrant fuchsia. Its elongated silhouette and rhythmic geometric medallions make it an exceptional choice for grounding a long corridor, framing a kitchen island, or adding a storied layer to a primary suite.
The rug’s low-pile texture and organic wool construction offer a tactile quality that complements a variety of high-end design movements, including Organic Modern, Japandi, and Transitional styles. Having been meticulously preserved and professionally prepared, it maintains a vintage soul while meeting the standards of modern luxury interiors. This is a versatile, one-of-a-kind textile that brings both warmth and architectural interest to the home.

◆ Color Palette & Design Insight:
A vibrant yet balanced composition of sunset tones and earthy neutrals.
(Primary colors: Apricot, Fuchsia Pink, Charcoal Grey)
• The primary field is a beautifully weathered apricot-peach that provides a soft, warm ground.
• Medallion centers are punctuated with high-contrast fuchsia pink for a punchy, artistic focal point.
• Secondary accents include charcoal and dusty blue, outlining the geometric forms with precision.
• Subtle sage green and ivory highlights provide a cooling balance to the warmer primary shades.
◆ Motifs & Symbolism:
The design centers on a rhythmic progression of stepped diamond medallions, a traditional Oushak motif representing the "amulet" to protect the home from the evil eye. The geometric border contains stylized floral elements and "star" shapes, which in Anatolian weaving culture symbolize happiness and the spark of life. The slight variations in color, or abrash, indicate the hand-dyed nature of the wool and the unique signature of the village weaver. Each symbol is a geometric abstraction of the weaver’s surroundings, turning a functional floor covering into a narrative of heritage.
