Wool over cotton, an Oushak drawing on an Afghan loom
Duties, taxes and shipping calculated at checkout
On the surface: Wool, Natural. The kind of yarn sets the hand of the rug, its shine and what its care asks, all together.
Authentic pattern. The ground and the motif are not parts of separate processes but of the same weave; the two advance together. The ground tone is black.
This rug is woven in Afghanistan. We write down where it comes from, because we want to be able to name the workshop when someone asks.
Cleaning method: Professional cleaning. What wears a rug down over the years is not a stain but the dust that settles at the base of the pile and grinds the fibers from inside with every step.
The nature of handwork: Every woven rug is made one at a time, so sizes and color tones can vary by up to 3%. Small irregularities where the yarns cross are not faults; they are the signature of the weave.
Wool over cotton, an Oushak drawing on an Afghan loom
Weaving has gone on at Uşak in western Anatolia since the fifteenth century, and the drawing that carries the town's name — Oushak, in English — has traveled a great deal further than its weavers ever did.
This is a Multicolor Oushak-Pattern Hand-Knotted Wool Rug, 155 × 219 cm (5'1" × 7'2"), tied by hand in Afghanistan in wool above a cotton foundation. A single piece. The Oushak manner is large in scale and open in layout — thin scrolling stems, wide flowerheads, forms placed symmetrically with room left around them.
That is the opposite habit from the Afghan drawing usually made on these looms, where one small unit repeats until the field is full, and the two traditions meeting on a single rug is most of what makes this piece worth looking at twice.
The palette runs across several colors rather than settling on one ground, which is the older Oushak practice as well. Wool takes the pile and cotton the foundation, in the ordinary division of labor of a knotted rug.
The pattern family is named for the Anatolian town and not for the place of manufacture, so it is worth saying outright that this rug was made in Afghanistan by weavers working in the Oushak idiom.
Nothing was traced from a cartoon, and a border repeat that lands neatly at one corner runs a little short at the next. The wash goes out to a workshop. Hand-knotted in Afghanistan in the Oushak drawing tradition. Wool pile above a cotton foundation. Thin scrolling stems and open flowerheads, placed symmetrically and given space. 155 × 219 cm (5'1" × 7'2") — an entrance hall, a study, or a bed end. Multicolor rather than built on a single ground. Oushak names the pattern family and the Anatolian town, not the workshop. Border repeats land differently corner to corner. Cleaning by a rug workshop.
One of one. A pattern that outlives the place it was named for is doing better than most designs manage, and this is the current state of the argument.
The most common mistake in choosing a rug is buying too small. Here are the numbers, room by room:
At least the front legs of the sofas should sit on the rug. Leave 20–40 cm of floor showing around it.
Recommended: 200×290 · 240×340 · 300×380
It should extend 60–75 cm beyond every edge of the table, so chairs do not catch when pulled back.
Recommended: 200×290 · 250×250 · 240×340
Either cover the lower two-thirds of the bed, or choose a size that extends 60–90 cm on three sides.
Recommended: 170×240 · 200×290 · 240×340
Choose one 25–30 cm shorter than the hallway, leaving 10–15 cm of floor on each side.
Recommended: 80×290 · 90×390 · 90×490
Use a head without a beater bar, in the direction of the pile. Once a week is enough; dust is lifted before it settles between the yarns.
Blot, do not rub. Dampen with a suitable cleaner and dry.
Household machines are not suitable for woven rugs. One professional wash a year is recommended.
At least the front legs of your sofas should sit on the rug. For a standard living room 200 × 290 cm is recommended; for wide rooms 240 × 340 cm or 300 × 380 cm. The scale plan on this page shows how much of a 520 × 420 cm room each size covers.
