Immerse yourself in the allure of this hand-knotted masterpiece – a vintage Turkish Oushak gallery rug that weaves a tale of timeless elegance. Picture a canvas adorned with four lozenge medallions, each bearing anchor pendants, gracefully scattered over an abrashed red field. Half medallions, mirroring the hues of the edges, extend in a dance towards the heart of the rug.

What sets this enchanting creation apart is its unusual main border, a highly stylized rendition of the classic Herati border. It's a spectacle of artistic prowess, adorned with an array of filler motifs – rosettes, eight-pointed stars, and diamonds – a symphony of craftsmanship. As your eyes traverse the rug, simple pearl meander guard borders emerge, offering a delightful contrast to the intricate designs that grace the field and main border.

This Oushak runner is not just a rug; it's a captivating narrative woven into every fiber, destined to breathe life into any space it graces.
