Antique Oushak Room Size Angora Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1875. This magnificent example of a late 19th-century weaving showcases the refined artistry characteristic of antique rugs from Anatolia. Woven with luxurious Angora wool in a rare square format, the pile offers a remarkable sheen and softness, enhancing the subtle shifts in color across the expansive field. The palette is dominated by a soft, luminous ivory color ground, beautifully contrasted by secondary tones of faded sage green, blush pink, and subtle saffron highlights. The intentional softening of the hues and the versatile square shape were highly desired by European and American designers seeking decorative pieces that complemented neoclassical and Arts and Crafts interiors.
