Introducing the "Soft Melody" Oushak rug, originating from India. This traditional rug design features a silver background with a gold border, creating a sophisticated and elegant look. Crafted using a combination of wool on cotton, this rug offers a luxurious feel and durability. Measuring at 10'2" X 13'11", it is the perfect size to enhance any space.

The Soft Melody collection showcases the expertise and craftsmanship of artisans in the Agra region of India. Handwoven in their homes, these rugs embrace centuries-old practices to create a blend of tradition and innovation.

The material used in these rugs is a blend of imported, long-staple New Zealand wool and superior local or South African wool. This combination ensures a lustrous finish, unlike rugs made solely from local wools. Meticulously hand-carded and hand-spun, the imported New Zealand wool contributes to the local economic sustainability of the craft.

What sets these rugs apart is the unique single-ply characteristic of the yarn. Each knot incorporates a single thread, resulting in a denser and nubbier texture. The use of an asymmetrical Persian-type knot further adds to the rug's distinctive appeal.

With a pile height of approximately 3/8 inch and a 100% wool pile, these Soft Melody rugs are constructed with cotton foundations, tightly spun cotton warps, and are mostly double-wefted. The handspun nature of the yarn ensures subtle color variations, making each rug unique.

Utilizing high-quality chromium dyes, these rugs boast light-fast qualities, resisting fading and maintaining vibrant hues over time. The use of these dyes, primarily imported from Switzerland, further enhances the rug's quality and longevity.

The Soft Melody Oushak rugs closely resemble traditional 19th-century Turkish Oushaks, particularly in their comparably large knots. The use of a single ply of thick yarn contributes to their nubby texture, which is evident at the base of each knot. This texture adds depth and character, distinguishing these rugs from others. Unlike thicker-pile rugs that can mask the texture, the Soft Melody Oushaks allow the nubby texture to stand out without appearing overly fluffy.

Enhance your space with the timeless elegance of the "Soft Melody" Oushak rug, a masterpiece crafted with care and precision.
