This delightful antique Oushak rug is a particularly charming example of early 20th-century Anatolian weaving. The design is remarkably open and spacious, featuring five floral bouquet medallions floating across a luminous golden-ivory field. The minimalist composition creates a sophisticated decorative appearance that feels surprisingly modern despite its age.
The soft palette is one of the rug's strongest attributes.
