Antique Oushak Hallway Runner Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece is a superb example of Oushak rugs woven during the late 19th century revival period, demonstrating the region's masterful blend of traditional Anatolian motifs with a grander, more architectural scale suitable for sophisticated Western interiors. The field presents a striking contrast, utilizing a deep, resonant brown ground overlaid with an intricate, repeating lattice. This dramatic presentation ensures the allover pattern maintains visual movement across the length of the piece. Despite the dark field, the high-contrast knots and highlights anchor the piece within the ivory rug category, offering brightness without overwhelming the sophisticated palette.
