{"product_id":"brown-handknotted-wool-aor21757","title":"Brown Teal 9'6''x12'5'' Traditional Distressed Oushak Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug","description":"Brown and Teal set the tone in this traditional distressed Oushak, a hand knotted wool Oriental area rug whose washed, sun-faded surface recalls a time-worn Persian carpet. Across the field, sage green melts into ivory, and at the center a diamond medallion is wrapped in gray florals that appear to fade into the background. Rosettes and leaves in ivory travel around a generous border that closes the design. The colors read as gently aged, yet each tiny leaf remains crisp, so the rug carries the character of an aged antique reproduction. Built from hand knotted wool with a dense, resilient pile, the rug rebounds after footsteps and suits households with kids and pets. Short fringe finishes each end, and regular vacuuming with the rotating brush turned off keeps the surface looking fresh. Warm tan and soft cream accents flatter the sage, ivory and gray scheme, so this vintage-inspired wool rug settles comfortably into a living room, bedroom, dining room, entryway or home office. If you favor a mellow, aged palette, it makes a warm and confident choice that feels relaxed and welcoming from the first day.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 9'6\"x12'5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Brown, Teal, Green, Ivory, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Pakistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.25 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: AOR21757\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: The distressed rug has its roots in the trade in worn antiques. Old Persian and Anatolian pieces, softened by generations of footsteps, came to be prized for their faded color and uneven surface, and before long weavers in Turkey, India, and Afghanistan began making new rugs that carried that same character from the very beginning. Today's version is hand knotted in the traditional way, then sheared low and washed with stone or dried in the sun to mellow the dyes, and in some workshops it is lightly abraded so the foundation shows through in places. What emerges is a rug with the calm, settled look of a piece that has lived in a room for a hundred years, even though the knots beneath are new and the wool still has its full strength ahead of it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Oriental Rug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68015082242268,"sku":"AOR21757","price":1499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/1996\/6684\/files\/A21757.jpg?v=1793618707","url":"https:\/\/americanorientalrug.com\/products\/brown-handknotted-wool-aor21757","provider":"americanorientalrug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
