The Oushak Mood: Airy Heritage, Sun-Washed Luxury
Oushak rugs carry a particular kind of quiet confidence—an Old-World tradition that feels remarkably current in today’s interiors. Woven in and around the historic town of Uşak in western Anatolia, these rugs were prized for centuries along trade routes and in European homes for their generous scale, refined wool, and famously “open” drawing style. Where many classical rugs lean intricate and jewel-toned, Oushaks are celebrated for something more architectural: spacious motifs, softened outlines, and palettes that seem gently kissed by time.
Designers return to Oushak again and again because it behaves like a natural material in the room. The patterns read with depth but never shout; the color stories—ivory, sand, parchment, sage, faded terracotta, misty blue—sit comfortably beside plaster walls, linen upholstery, vintage woods, and contemporary stone. Antique pieces bring patina and romance, while new Oushak rugs echo the same relaxed sophistication with cleaner structure and an easy-to-live-with finish.
Think of this collection as a bridge between eras: heritage craftsmanship translated into a modern, luminous vibe. Whether you’re styling a formal dining room, grounding a coastal living space, or adding warmth to a minimal bedroom, Oushak offers that rare balance—history you can feel, and neutrality you can decorate around for years.
Turkey Oushak beige with sage accents traditional antique area rug with floral allover and scrolling vine motifs SKU 72544
This antique Turkish Oushak is the definition of understated prestige: a beige-cream field lit from within, traced with sage green that feels botanical rather than bold. Up close, you’ll notice the gentle confidence of classic Oushak drawing—scrolling vines, palmette blossoms, and small rosettes arranged with breathable spacing, so the rug never overwhelms the furniture it supports. The low pile contributes to that “collected” look designers love, letting the pattern sit flatter and more graphic—perfect for layered textures like boucle, linen, or warm oak.
In a living room, it becomes a calming anchor under a conversational seating plan. In a dining room, it reads elegant and forgiving, softening hard edges and adding a sense of heritage without pulling the space traditional. Its palette is a dream for neutral interiors: creamy warmth, subtle green, and a naturally antique softness that makes everything around it feel more intentional.

- Size Band: Standard Medium (approx. 6’6″ x 9’9″)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Antique Turkish Oushak, Floral Allover

Turkey Oushak beige with peach and navy traditional area antique rug with floral allover vines and rosette border motifs SKU 71147
There’s a gentle sweetness to this antique Oushak—pale butter-cream as the base, softened coral drifting through the field, and navy detailing that gives the whole composition a crisp, tailored finish. The floral allover geometry feels abundant yet disciplined, like a garden seen through a well-composed lens. Because the coral is muted and the navy is used as definition rather than dominance, the rug plays beautifully in spaces that want warmth without turning “pink.”
Use it to lift a bedroom with layered whites and natural wood, or to add an inviting glow to a study lined with books and darker casegoods. Its medium pile brings comfort underfoot while keeping the pattern legible—ideal if you want the rug to feel plush but not overly thick in a furnished room. This is the kind of piece that makes an interior feel lived-in and curated, as if it has always belonged there.
- Color Band: Butter Cream / Soft Coral with Navy Accents
- Size Band: Standard Medium (approx. 4’10” x 6’11”)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Antique Turkish Oushak, Floral Allover
- Use Case: Bedroom, library, foyer, sitting room
- Designer Tip: Let navy appear again in a lamp shade trim or framed art to “lock in” the outline color and elevate the entire room.
Persian Oushak beige with blue and red traditional area antique rug with bold geometric floral motifs and stylized palmettes SKU 70104
This Persian Oushak brings a more architectural personality to the collection—biscotti beige as the foundation, punctuated by true navy with hints of red that energize the composition without tipping it into formality. The motif language feels bolder and more geometric: stylized palmettes, angular vines, and medallion-like cartouches that create a rhythmic structure across the field. The result is a rug that reads classic from a distance, but graphic and design-forward once you live with it.
It’s a natural fit for transitional spaces where you’re mixing eras: a modern sofa with sculptural legs, a vintage credenza, and clean-lined lighting. The balanced pattern density provides visual interest without the “busy” feeling that can compete with art or statement furniture. In open-plan rooms, it helps zone a seating area and gives the layout a grounded, finished look—especially when you echo the navy in a single strong element like a console, drapery trim, or a pair of chairs.
- Color Band: Beige with Navy & Subtle Red
- Size Band: Standard Medium (approx. 5’4″ x 6’10”)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Persian Oushak, Geometric-Decorative
- Use Case: Living room, dining room, entry hall, study
- Designer Tip: If your room is mostly neutral, use this rug as permission to introduce one deeper note (ink blue) in a single large piece for a more editorial finish.
Persian Oushak beige with soft green and terracotta accents, traditional area contemporary rug with central medallion and stylized floral and geometric motifs SKU 13868
If you’re looking for Oushak warmth with a slightly more defined focal point, this Persian Oushak-inspired piece delivers. A butter-cream ground sets an optimistic, light-reflective backdrop, while cedar-wood tones (reading like terracotta in the room) give the pattern its sun-baked character. The central medallion presence adds ceremony—perfect for rooms that need a clear center—yet the surrounding motifs keep the overall feel relaxed rather than formal.
This rug shines in dining rooms where the table becomes the “jewel” and the rug supplies a halo of softness around it. It also works beautifully in a primary bedroom, where the warm accents can echo leather, walnut, or clay pottery. The medium pile offers everyday comfort and a substantive hand, while the palette keeps everything airy. It’s the kind of piece that makes a newly designed space feel emotionally warm—inviting, grounded, and ready for real life.
- Color Band: Cream / Beige with Soft Green & Terracotta-Wood Accents
- Size Band: Standard Large (approx. 7’11” x 12’4″)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Persian Oushak-Inspired, Medallion & Geometric Floral
- Use Case: Dining room, living room, bedroom, hallway
- Designer Tip: Repeat the terracotta note subtly (a ceramic lamp base or art) and keep upholstery creamy to maintain the rug’s luminous “Oushak” effect.
Persian Oushak beige with terracotta and soft gray traditional oversize palace new rug with scattered floral and palmette motifs SKU 70079
For large rooms that need calm authority, this oversize Persian Oushak is a masterclass in scale. The “cloud dancer” base—soft, pale, and gently neutral—gives you that expansive Oushak lightness, while russet-orange accents deliver the warmth of aged terracotta without feeling heavy. The patterning is balanced and decorative, with scattered palmettes and floral traces that keep the field interesting across a wide span, so the rug holds its own in a great room without becoming visually dense.
This is the type of rug designers choose when they want the architecture to feel softer: high ceilings, long sightlines, and mixed materials like stone, oak, and plaster. It creates cohesion under multiple seating groups and helps open-plan layouts feel intentional. Because the contrast is tasteful rather than stark, it also photographs beautifully—an excellent choice for styled homes where texture and tone are the story.
- Color Band: Soft Beige / Light Neutral with Terracotta-Russet & Gray
- Size Band: Oversize / Palace (approx. 10’2″ x 13’6″)
- Price Band: Premium
- Style: Persian Oushak, Oversize Decorative Allover
- Use Case: Great room, large living room, formal sitting room, large hallway
- Designer Tip: In a big space, keep furniture legs visible and finishes varied (wood + metal + linen) so the rug reads like a unifying “canvas,” not a competing pattern.
Turkey (Oushak) Ivory and Sage Green Traditional Oversize Contemporary Rug with Floral Palmettes and Scrolling Vinework SKU 53278
This Turkish Oushak oversize piece channels the relaxed grandeur Oushaks are famous for—warm ivory as the luminous base, with muted sage drifting through medallions, palmettes, and vinework. The scale feels generous and welcoming, designed for expansive interiors where you want softness without sacrificing presence. The overall effect is airy and warm, with a calm pattern rhythm that’s easy to live with even when the room is busy with seating, tables, and layered lighting.
Placed in a primary bedroom, it turns the entire space into a retreat—especially with walnut or light oak casegoods and textured linens. In an open-plan great room, it provides that “one rug that ties it all together” feeling, anchoring multiple furniture zones while keeping the palette cohesive. The ivory ground is particularly forgiving for bright, natural-light homes; the sage adds a tailored freshness that complements everything from creamy bouclé to darker, moodier accents like charcoal or espresso.
- Color Band: Ivory with Muted Sage
- Size Band: Oversize / Palace (approx. 13’9″ x 17’1″)
- Price Band: Midrange
- Style: Contemporary Turkish Oushak, Medallion & Mixed Motifs
- Use Case: Great room, dining room, primary bedroom, formal sitting room
- Designer Tip: Bring in contrast through materials (blackened steel, dark wood) rather than adding more color—this rug already delivers a refined, nature-inspired palette.
Turkey Oushak beige with soft coral and sage accents traditional area new rug with geometric palmettes and stylized floral motifs SKU 95616
Fresh and subtly romantic, this new Turkish Oushak pairs silver-green (a poised, modern sage) with pale salmon accents that feel like a sunset reflected on plaster walls. The design language is geometric-meets-floral—stylized palmettes and medallion forms that keep the room feeling structured, while the softened palette maintains the signature Oushak ease. With a low pile, it offers a tailored, designer-friendly profile that slips neatly under furniture and reads crisp in contemporary spaces.
This is an exceptional choice for dining rooms and living rooms that need color, but in a whisper. It pairs beautifully with cream upholstery, light woods, and even warmer metals like unlacquered brass. If you’re designing a space with art, this rug supports rather than competes: the pattern has enough personality to feel special, but its tones are gentle enough to let wall pieces shine.
- Color Band: Silver Green / Sage with Pale Salmon
- Size Band: Medium (approx. 8’10” x 9’10”)
- Price Band: Luxury
- Style: New Turkish Oushak, Geometric-Floral
