Oushak Hand-Tufted Wool Custom Made Allure Traditional Rug - Ivory and Blue

A clear blue border gives definition to the ivory ground of this Allure Oushak. The broad flowers and generous field take their cue from carpets of western Anatolia. Look closely at the border, where the repeated blossoms make a rhythm of their own around the quieter center.

Artisans place the wool yarn through a stretched foundation by hand, shaping the flowers and edge as they work. The resulting pile feels soft and warm underfoot. The clarity of the blue frame gives the rug presence even when much of the pale center sits beneath furniture.

A custom size gives you the freedom to position the carpet around the arrangement you already have. The time in production goes into tracing the drawing across the wool pile by hand.

“A contrasting border needs room to be seen. I mark the sofa and chair legs on the taped outline first, then step back and see whether the frame still holds the arrangement together.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

MAKER / HERITAGE

The Rug Decor carries forward generations of family experience in rug making. In Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, generations of artisans have preserved the knowledge of building carpets by hand. A tufter follows the drawing across a stretched foundation, placing yarn to keep the turn of a stem and the outline of a border clear. It takes a practiced eye to carry that rhythm across a whole rug.
