{"product_id":"runner-rug-2-8-x-9-7-no-vr41671","title":"Multicolor Turkish Oushak Rug 2'8\" x 9'7\" Hand-Knotted | No. VR41671","description":"\u003cp\u003eOushak runners carry a quiet authority, and this vintage example is no different. Time has mellowed the multicolor palette into the kind of softened, sun-touched tones that only decades of use and age can produce. The geometric field patterns sit within a composition that feels unhurried and spacious, characteristic of the western Anatolian Oushak tradition. The patina across the wool pile gives the surface a gentle lustre that new production simply cannot replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWoven in Turkey using lanolin-rich Anatolian wool on a cotton foundation, this hand-knotted runner was worked using the Ghiordes symmetrical knot, the same technique Oushak weavers have employed for centuries. That knot structure creates a dense, durable pile that holds its form even after long service, which this rug has clearly seen. The cotton warp and weft provide dimensional stability, keeping the runner flat and true across its nearly ten-foot length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt just under two feet eight inches wide and nearly nine feet seven inches long, this runner suits a hallway, kitchen, or alongside a bed in a narrower bedroom. It pairs well with natural wood floors and earthy, layered interiors. Browse our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vintage-rugs\"\u003evintage rugs collection\u003c\/a\u003e for related pieces.
