A rare hand-knotted pictorial Oushak treasure — a living aquarium woven into wool. Dozens of playful fish swim across a warm ivory field, each one individually knotted by master artisans in the Bhadohi–Mirzapur weaving belt of India, in the Turkish Anatolian pictorial tradition.
◆ PRODUCT DETAILS
• Size: 3X12 (available in 8x10, 9x12, 3x12, 2x10 runner, and custom sizes on request)
• Material: 100% New Zealand wool pile on cotton foundation
• Construction: Fully hand-knotted, one knot at a time — never machine-made, never tufted
• Origin: Handwoven in our Bhadohi atelier, Uttar Pradesh, India
• Design: Pictorial fish motif on ivory ground with indigo, teal, terracotta, ochre, and sage green — every fish slightly different, a true one-of-a-kind piece
◆ WHY COLLECTORS LOVE IT
Pictorial rugs are among the most collectible in the Oushak canon. Unlike geometric or floral designs, a pictorial fish rug tells a story — a perfect anchor for coastal homes, biophilic interiors, nurseries, libraries, reading nooks, and quiet-luxury spaces. The abrash (subtle tonal variation) in the ivory field gives the wool a glowing, lived-in patina that photographs beautifully and ages like fine furniture.
◆ PREMIUM NEW ZEALAND WOOL
Soft underfoot, naturally stain-resistant, hypoallergenic, low-shedding, and sustainable. New Zealand wool holds vegetable-inspired dyes exceptionally well, giving this rug its depth of color and silky hand-feel. With proper care, this is a true heirloom piece that can be passed down across generations.
◆ IDEAL FOR
Coastal farmhouses, modern biophilic interiors, grand-millennial living rooms, kids' rooms and nurseries, reading nooks, libraries, entryways, and the homes of collectors who appreciate slow-crafted, one-of-a-kind art for the floor.

Care Instructions:
✔️ Vacuum regularly on a gentle setting (no beater bar) to remove dust and preserve the rug’s natural beauty
✔️ Spot Clean: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth – do not rub. Use a mild, wool-safe detergent for any needed spot cleaning
✔️ Avoid Harsh Cleaners: No bleach or strong chemicals, as they can damage the natural wool fibers.
✔️ Professional Cleaning: For a thorough refresh, consider professional rug cleaning every 12–18 months.
✔️ Prevent Fading: Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight, and rotate the rug every few months to ensure even wear.
With proper care, this hand-knotted rug will remain a lasting heirloom piece for generations
