This extra-long new hand-knotted Oushak runner rug displays a classic elongated design with a repeating series of soft medallions and flowing floral vines that run gracefully along the length. The transitional style softens traditional Turkish Oushak patterns with a pale, washed palette and open spacing, creating an elegant and airy appearance suitable for wide hallways or long corridors. The wool pile is thick and comfortable with a subtle distressed look.
Oushak runners draw from the historic weaving tradition of western Turkey, where large-scale floral and medallion designs were adapted into narrow formats for practical use in long spaces. Modern versions like this one maintain the signature loose weave and grand motifs but use softer, contemporary colors to blend with current interiors. This piece offers timeless appeal with its balanced layout and gentle aging effect.
The durable wool construction handles foot traffic well, making this wide runner ideal for grand entryways, wide hallways, or gallery spaces where it can add length and sophistication. Its neutral tones and symmetrical pattern work beautifully with various decor styles while the elongated shape visually extends narrow areas. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning every few years will preserve the soft colors and maintain the plush pile.
