Introducing the "Soft Melody" collection, this Indian rug features a traditional Oushak design. With a grey background and a navy border, the main color of this rug is also grey. Crafted using high-quality materials, this rug is made of wool on a cotton foundation.

Measuring 9'4" x 11'11", the Soft Melody rug is meticulously handwoven by artisans in and around the city of Agra, India. It incorporates a unique blend of imported, long-staple New Zealand wool, providing a shinier and more lustrous finish compared to rugs made from local wool alone. The yarn used in this rug is custom-made and features a single-ply characteristic, resulting in a denser and nubbier texture with knots that are visibly pronounced.

This Soft Melody Oushak rug pays homage to traditional 19th-century Turkish Oushaks. The large knots and thick single ply of the yarn contribute to its unique and delightful texture, particularly noticeable at the base of each knot. Historically, traditional Oushaks had a dense pile, and while most existing antique pieces have experienced wear over time, this worn appearance adds depth and character to the rug's design.

Unlike rugs with thicker piles that tend to hide texture, the subdued pile of the Soft Melody Oushak allows the nubby texture to stand out, enhancing its visual appeal. The rug's coloration is achieved using chromium dyes, creating vibrant hues that resist fading and maintain their vibrancy over time.

Experience the tradition and craftsmanship of the Soft Melody collection. This rug is a testament to the artistry and skill of Indian rug weavers, resulting in a stunning piece that will elevate any space.
