Classic Oushak elegance in a palette that feels sun-warmed rather than stately, this hand-knotted carpet draws on the Turkish weaving traditions that made these designs a fixture in European drawing rooms for centuries. The rug features a soft beige field filled with an allover arrangement of angular palmettes, serrated leaves, and stepped medallions in rust red, gold, and pale celadon. A wide sage-green border wraps the design with full-blown rosettes and curling vines, bringing a cooler counterpoint to all that warmth in the center. Woven from pure wool and hand-knotted throughout, it has a low, tight pile that wears exceptionally well in dining rooms, hallways, and other spots that see real traffic.
*Note: This rug was photographed under studio lighting, which means the colors on screen may appear a little more vibrant than they do in person. We'd recommend watching the video below for a truer sense of the palette.

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. They’re 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.
