On the Design

Designers and admirers of the craft alike will particularly appreciate its versatile size that one rarely finds in antique rugs of its provenance. Furthermore this Oushak is an exemplar of its kind—particularly for the regal, yet feminine and unexpected sensibility Oushaks are known for among traditional rugs. Peach pink, amber gold and tangerine tone underscore the play of palmette floral patterns in both field and border alike—with a general warm and creamy undertone as well.

Admirers of the craft and keen eyes will particularly admire the subtleties at work in the field, wherein a layer of more muted patterns underneath the more prominent orange florals lends a fabulous sense of dimension and depth. Everything for the scale of this piece for such a small rug to the phenomenal hues and overall execution of detail speak to this as a rare and collectible masterpiece of the Oushak rug style—a light and elegant choice for both the connoisseur and designer alike.
