Angular palmettes and a geometric central medallion anchor this hand-knotted Oushak rug, framed by a wide stylized border worked in muted earth tones. Skilled artisans hand-tie each knot to capture the soft, weathered color variation that defines authentic heritage Oushak weaving, giving the brown and gold palette a lived-in warmth rather than a flat, uniform finish.
Individually woven by skilled artisans, each rug is a truly one-of-a-kind piece. This authentic craftsmanship results in a distinct work of art built to last for generations.
Construction: Hand-knotted from wool, selected for its softness and its ability to hold the tonal variation seen across the medallion and border.
Care & Maintenance: Vacuum regularly using suction only, avoiding a rotating beater bar. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth, and rotate the rug periodically to distribute wear across the central medallion. Professional cleaning is recommended to keep the palette looking rich.

Story Behind the Art: Oushak Rugs, originating in the west-central Anatolian town of Oushak in Turkey, are renowned for their exceptional texture, expansive design and elegant style. These rugs are made using a family of designs that originate in Ushak, Turkey. TheyÕre recognizable for their large-scale designs and are typically based on geometric motifs with central medallion drawings, smaller all-over medallions or scattered sprays of vine scroll and palmettes. Made from lustrous wool, they favor muted earth tones and are extremely versatile.
