This large new Oushak rug displays a classic open, airy composition with scattered stylized floral and leaf motifs across a warm beige field. The design avoids heavy central medallions, instead featuring softly drawn botanical elements, abstract cloud bands, and palmettes in faded pastel tones that give a gentle, aged appearance. Wide borders with repeating vine and flower patterns frame the field in coordinating subdued colors.
Oushak rugs from Turkey have been woven for centuries, originally for palaces and mosques, but 20th-century examples like this one were often washed and over-dyed to achieve the popular soft, vintage look seen today. The low to medium pile and careful distressing create an antique feel while maintaining good structural integrity and comfort underfoot.
Perfect for spacious living rooms, dining areas, or open-plan spaces where a large neutral rug can anchor furniture without dominating the room. Its light palette brightens interiors and pairs beautifully with wood floors, modern or traditional furniture, and natural textures. With regular gentle vacuuming and occasional professional cleaning, the wool will hold its softness and subtle color variations for years.
