Hand-knotted in wool and natural silk, this rug features a refined all-over geometric layout rendered in soft beige, ivory, muted gold, blush, and pale gray tones.

On the Design:

Hailing from western Turkey, Oushak carpets carry a distinguished heritage dating back to the 15th century when they were celebrated as premier woven treasures of the Ottoman Empire. Prized across Renaissance Europe and royal court interiors for their grand scale, classical Oushaks evolved by the late 19th century toward open, relaxed compositions, larger-scale floral drafting, and softer color palettes tailored for international decorative tastes. This modern rug masterfully captures that storied Anatolian legacy, reimagining traditional Oushak floral rosettes and angular branching motifs within an organized, open-field lattice.

The palette adopts a soft, contemporary sensibility, pairing warm neutral undertones with subtle blush, pale gray, muted gold, and rich accent hues to create an understated yet expressive decorative presence. The silk threads catch ambient light to accentuate the stepped geometric detailing and fluid botanical forms underfoot. The interplay of historic design language and luminous material texture lends the piece an architectural quality while preserving the warmth of traditional handmade carpets—resulting in a versatile modern classic that bridges old-world craftsmanship and contemporary interior aesthetics with remarkable ease. The accompanying book, Paris Living by Guillaume de Laubier, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B268) can be acquired independently through our bookstore.
