The Oushak Look: Old-World Craft, Modern Calm
Oushak rugs have always spoken a quieter language than many of their Persian cousins—and that is exactly their power. Born from the historic weaving corridors of Anatolia and later embraced and reinterpreted across Persian ateliers, the Oushak tradition became known for open fields, softened geometry, and a palette that feels as if it has been gently warmed by decades of sunlight. While classical court carpets often celebrate high contrast and intricate storytelling, Oushaks feel atmospheric: spacious patterns, graceful borders, and motifs that drift rather than shout.
Designers return to Oushak again and again because the style plays beautifully with today’s interiors. These rugs have an effortless “collected” elegance—equally at home beneath a tailored sectional, anchoring a dining room with sculptural lighting, or bringing warmth to a serene bedroom. Wool construction adds a tactile richness, and the hallmark low-to-medium pattern density keeps the room feeling airy and dimensional. Think of Oushak as the finishing layer that makes an interior feel intentional: it introduces heritage without heaviness, and color without noise. In this curated selection, you’ll find creamy neutrals, sage greens, blush tones, and soft terracotta accents—each rug designed to quiet the room, refine the palette, and make the furnishings look even better.
Persian Oushak Beige Cream with Light Taupe Accents – SKU 69815
This Persian Oushak is the definition of understated luxury—an elegant beige-cream foundation brushed with light taupe details that read like shadow and light across plaster walls. Its soft geometric vines and stylized palmettes sit at that perfect distance between traditional and modern, creating a rug that feels calm but not plain. In a living room, it will amplify natural light and make upholstery look cleaner and more tailored; in a bedroom, it brings a breathable, boutique-hotel softness. The medium pile adds comfort without heaviness, and the balanced layout makes it easy to style with both organic textures (oak, linen, boucle) and refined finishes (brass, marble, lacquer). If you’re building a neutral room that still needs depth, this piece delivers it through tone-on-tone movement—quietly architectural, always polished.

Persian Oushak Warm Taupe with Soft Sage Accents – SKU 69155
Warm taupe and soft sage is one of the most livable combinations in design—grounded, calming, and quietly sophisticated. This Persian Oushak uses that palette to create an inviting field where abstract medallion forms and palmette scrolls appear like a gentle mural. There’s enough ornament to feel special, yet the color story keeps everything serene. Place it under a dining table and you’ll notice how it softens hard surfaces; use it in a study and it instantly makes the room feel more established and layered. The wool construction and medium pile give it tactile appeal—especially flattering beside walnut, antique brass, and creamy upholstery. This is the kind of rug that doesn’t compete with art; it supports it, creating a composed backdrop that lets the entire room breathe.

Persian Oushak Beige with Soft Green and Terracotta Accents – SKU 13868
For clients who want warmth without going bold, this large Persian Oushak is a masterclass in sun-washed color. A butter-cream ground sets an airy stage, while cedar-wood and terracotta notes add subtle energy—like the soft glow of clay pottery against limestone walls. The central medallion and stylized floral geometry feel rooted in tradition, but the palette reads very current: warm neutrals, softened contrast, and a deliberately relaxed mood. In a living room, it anchors a large seating plan with gentle definition; in a dining room, it creates a welcoming, layered look that still feels clean. The scale supports open-plan layouts and makes furniture groupings feel intentional. It’s elegant, approachable, and quietly radiant—especially beautiful in rooms with natural light and warm wood tones.

- Designer Tip: If your upholstery is neutral, echo the terracotta in art or a single textile (throw, curtain band) to make the room feel curated—never themed.
Persian Oushak Biscotti Beige with True Navy Accents – SKU 70104
This Persian Oushak brings a tailored sense of contrast—biscotti beige warmed by earthy undertones, sharpened with true navy detailing that reads crisp and architectural. The stylized palmettes and geometric blossoms feel classic, but the overall impression is clean, balanced, and design-forward. It’s an ideal solution when a room needs definition: navy elements naturally “frame” furniture, creating visual structure without requiring heavy pattern density. Under a sofa with light upholstery, the navy will outline the seating zone; beneath a dining table, it adds just enough drama to elevate everyday meals into something more intentional. The wool base and medium pile keep it comfortable and substantial. If your space includes black metal, indigo accents, or even deep green cabinetry, this rug will connect those tones to a warmer, more welcoming foundation.
- Color Band: Biscotti Beige / True Navy (Light Neutral + Deep Blue)
- Size Band: Standard Medium (approx. 5’4″ x 6’10”)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Persian Oushak, Geometric-Mixed Motifs
- Use Case: Living room, dining room, study, entry hall
- Designer Tip: Add one navy repetition (lamp base, pillow piping) and keep the rest sand/ivory—this creates a high-end, edited contrast.
Persian Oushak Pale Blush with Light Beige Accents – SKU 70219
Pale blush in an Oushak format is the kind of “secret color” designers love: it reads warm, luminous, and modern, yet never overly sweet. This small Persian Oushak has a refined, tonal field where diffuse floral traces and abstract medallion shadows appear like watercolor—soft, layered, and intentionally imperfect. It’s a beautiful choice for a bedroom, dressing room, or intimate sitting area where you want the rug to add warmth without introducing busy pattern. The blush works especially well with creamy whites, light oak, and brushed metals, and it can even calm a room with bolder artwork by acting as a gentle counterbalance. Think of it as a subtle mood-setter: romantic in a sophisticated way, quietly textured, and perfect for spaces designed around comfort and light.
- Color Band: Pale Blush / Light Beige (Light, Warm Neutral-Pink)
- Size Band: Small Accent (approx. 3’2″ x 4’10”)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Persian Oushak, Soft Abstract-Decorative
- Use Case: Bedroom, dressing room, hallway, reading nook
- Designer Tip: Pair with ivory bedding and a single walnut or caramel leather accent to keep the blush looking elevated and grown-up.
Turkey Oushak Beige Cream with Sage Green Accents (Antique) – SKU 72544
There’s a distinct romance to an antique Oushak: the color feels settled, the design feels collected, and the overall presence suggests a home with history. This Turkish Oushak pairs beige cream with sage green in a way that feels botanical and calm—like dried herbs and limestone. Scrolling tendrils, palmette blossoms, and rosette details create a graceful allover rhythm, giving the rug decorative richness without the heaviness of tighter, denser weaving traditions. It’s a natural anchor for traditional interiors, but it’s equally compelling in transitional spaces where you want one authentic, storied element to elevate everything else. Use it in a living room with clean-lined furniture for contrast, or in a dining room with vintage lighting to amplify its heritage character. The low pile keeps it practical and easy to live with, while the antique identity makes the room feel instantly more personal.
- Color Band: Beige Cream / Sage Green (Light Neutral + Green)
- Size Band: Standard Medium (approx. 6’6″ x 9’1″)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Turkish Oushak, Antique Floral Allover
