Handwoven in wool with a lustrous, soft pile, the carpet features a delicate botanical design that floats across a luminous beige ground. Stylized floral motifs—interspersed with palmettes, rosettes, serrated leaves, and diamond tracery—are arranged in a graceful, loosely structured lattice, lending a harmonious rhythm to the overall composition.

The palette, composed of understated neutrals such as ivory, taupe, and dove gray, reinforces the rug’s tranquil and sophisticated character, making it highly adaptable to both classic and modern interiors. A wide border with angular motifs and scrolling vines frames the central field, complementing its organic structure while offering visual definition.

Woven in the early 20th century, this piece reflects the enduring quality and decorative versatility that have made Oushak rugs some of the most sought-after in the world. Its restrained coloration and open design imbue any space with warmth and textural depth while allowing surrounding furnishings to shine.

Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices. See less
