Teal Multi Size Oushak Arts and Crafts Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug

Hand knotted from 100% wool with a cotton foundation, this 9x12 transitional rug features a medium pile height and a softly blended mix of gray, beige, and blue suited to expansive interiors. Influenced by classical rug layouts, the design is organized with a subtle border that frames a lightly ornamented central field. Floral and vine-inspired motifs appear throughout the surface in an evenly paced arrangement, creating a sense of continuity rather than emphasizing any dominant focal point. The interplay of warm neutrals and cooler undertones produces a surface that feels gently aged and visually relaxed. Natural variation within the hand-knotted wool pile adds texture and depth, reinforcing the handcrafted quality while preserving overall cohesion. Well suited for large living rooms, dining spaces, or bedrooms, this 9x12 hand-knotted wool transitional rug provides a refined yet approachable foundation that bridges traditional influence with modern ease.

Story Behind the Art: The Arts and Crafts movement emerged in the late 19th century as a reaction against mass-produced, machine-made goods, advocating instead for quality, authenticity, and the beauty of handcrafted design. Led by influential figures such as William Morris, the movement championed the return to traditional craftsmanship and emphasized designs inspired by the natural world. Rugs from this tradition feature stylized interpretations of flowers, foliage, fruit, and organic forms, arranged in bold yet harmonious patterns that celebrate handwork and material integrity. Over time, Arts and Crafts rugs evolved to include a wide range of expressions, from flowing Art Nouveau designs with curvilinear lines to Mission-style geometry, Native American–influenced patterns, American Prairie aesthetics, and Caucasian-inspired motifs. United by their emphasis on nature, craftsmanship, and thoughtful color use, Arts and Crafts rugs remain enduringly popular for their warmth, character, and timeless decorative appeal.
