{"product_id":"gray-handknotted-oushak-orh20513","title":"7'9''x9'10'' Hand Knotted Wool Gray, Aqua Oushak Arts and Crafts Rug","description":"Rooted in the Arts and Crafts tradition, this 8x10 hand knotted wool rug celebrates ornament, symmetry, and thoughtful color placement as integral parts of everyday design. Handcrafted from premium wool with a cotton foundation with a medium pile height, the rug reflects a design philosophy that values craftsmanship and decorative harmony. The composition is built around a clearly framed structure, with a richly detailed border enclosing a dense, pattern-filled field. Stylized floral forms, abstract botanical motifs, and small geometric accents are arranged in a balanced, intentional repeating rhythm. The color palette combines soft gray and warm beige as a grounding base, enriched with accents of aqua, celadon, rose, and muted gold. These colors are carefully distributed across the design, allowing each motif to stand out while maintaining a cohesive overall look. The slightly muted tones give the rug a classic, time-softened character, while the hand-knotted wool surface brings warmth and tactile richness to the intricate detailing. Well suited for living rooms, dining spaces, libraries, or thoughtfully curated interiors, this 8x10 hand knotted wool Arts and Crafts rug in gray and beige works beautifully in homes that appreciate decorative detail and traditional design reinterpreted for modern living. Its structured layout and nuanced color story make it an ideal foundation for spaces that value artistry, balance, and enduring style.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 7'9\"x9'10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Gray, Beige, Aqua, Rose, Gold, Celedon, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.5 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: ORH20513\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Originating as a protest against mass produced inferior factory products of the 19th century, the Arts and Crafts Movement favored originality and craftsmanship. William Morris, main proponent of the movement, emphasized the use of handcrafts over the use of machinery and introduced a new design sensibility that evoked nature in home interiors through furniture, upholstery, wallpaper and rugs with intricate intertwining fruit, flower, and foliage patterns. The popularity of Morris’s rug designs has endured to the current times and stands emblematic of Art \u0026amp; Crafts rugs with their simple, bold, informal design themes rooted in nature. Today, the Arts \u0026amp; Crafts rugs embrace a multitude of styles ranging from the Art Nouveau style (rug patterns with flowing, curvilinear lines and nature-inspired, floral designs), Mission-style as well as geometric patterns inspired by Native American designs, American Prairie style and Caucasian rugs (hand-knotted rugs made in a small, Middle-Eastern region called the Caucasus). Arts and Crafts Rugs' natural motifs and interesting color palette add to their versatility and enduring charm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51921973313829,"sku":"ORH20513","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1141\/7716\/files\/A20513.jpg?v=1769079543","url":"https:\/\/orientalrugofhouston.com\/products\/gray-handknotted-oushak-orh20513","provider":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
