The subtle hues in this vintage Oushak rug balances out spaces with bolder colors and dark architectural elements allowing a space to transition from casual to luxurious, without sacrificing comfort. This is two sections woven together to create one large rug. Tribal weavers in Turkey did not have the space for larger looms. Many of the weavers were nomadic and the old story is that their tents were between four and six feet wide, so the rugs could be no wider than that. To make larger pieces such as this, they would make the two halves separately and then stitch them together. Some buyers assume rugs likes these are two runners that have been joined, but the designs prove otherwise. The seams on these pieces are actually a desirable element for rug collectors and lovers, as they help authenticate the age and production method of the rugs. When considering rugs like these, we always tell customers to consider the seams, the asymmetry, the abrash, the color variation, and other such "imperfections" as part of the charm and joy of authentic vintage and antique Turkish tribal rugs from regions without large production centers. Antique Wash. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 10'05 x 12'10.
