Woven Grandeur — Oushak Rug from Afghanistan (10.1 × 13.9 ft)

This commanding Oushak rug from Afghanistan (10.1 × 13.9 ft) is a masterclass in balance — pairing traditional design with a refined, earthen palette ideal for upscale interiors. Its generous dimensions make it a natural anchor for spacious living rooms, formal dining areas, or under a statement bed in a master suite.

The field is a tapestry of botanical motifs: stylized lotus rosettes, scrolling vinery, and delicate palmettes rendered in soft tones of walnut, caramel, muted rust, and ivory. These hues, softened by subtle abrash, shift gracefully across the rug, creating a sense of movement and patina. The wide ivory border frames the field like parchment, adorned with traditional floral elements that echo the center’s elegance.

Woven by hand using fine wool, this piece blends the aesthetic legacy of antique Anatolian rugs with the craftsmanship of Afghan artisans, making it a durable and visually timeless floor covering.
