11'3 x 18 Persian Hook Aubusson Style Oval Rug

This 11'3" x 17'10" Persian Hook Aubusson-style oval rug is an enchanting piece that combines the grandeur of Persian design with the romantic allure of French Aubusson craftsmanship. The rug is characterized by its oval shape, a rarity that adds an element of uniqueness to its design. Soft pastel colors dominate the palette, with a creamy beige base that provides a gentle canvas for the symmetrical floral patterns that bloom across its surface. Accents of soft rose, sage green, and subtle lavender contribute to a delicate and refined aesthetic. The design is framed by an intricate border featuring scrolling vines and florals, which perfectly complement the central design.

The construction of the rug is reminiscent of the French Aubusson weave, known for its flat weave and elegance, which when combined with the Persian influence in the pattern, creates a rug that is both sophisticated and stately. The overall effect is one of understated elegance, making it an ideal choice for a formal dining room, a grand living area, or a palatial bedroom.

Persian hook rugs, also known as Persian hooked rugs or simply hook rugs, are a type of handcrafted textile that originates from Persia, which is now modern-day Iran. These rugs are created using a technique known as rug hooking, which involves pulling loops of yarn or fabric through a woven or burlap backing to create a pattern or design.
