Grounded beauty

A soft field of sand and tea-leaf green, framed by inky florals—quiet pattern that steadies a room.

Room, gathered

The rug that finishes the conversation

Vintage, with restraint

Large rooms can feel unfinished when the floor is empty or the scale is off. The 8.5x11.5 Vintage Distressed Arak Carpet lays down a calm, continuous plane so furniture reads as a group. Its floral lattice and time-softened palette give visual weight without shouting.

A steadier floor

Scale, color, and pattern set the tone for how people move and listen. This rug’s generous footprint and aged detail bring warmth, soften sound, and make a seating area feel intentional. The room looks collected—like it grew there.

For the space that needs anchoring

Someone shaping a living, dining, bedroom, entry, or studio where an 8'6" x 11'4" rug can breathe and be seen.

Where it lives

Center it under a sofa and chairs or beneath a dining table so the full pattern reads and the furniture lands within its border.

A legacy in textiles

Old New House® provenance

Old New House® brings a generational eye to hand‑picked vintage and antique rugs. Dave draws on a four‑generation line on his mother’s side and a five‑generation lineage on his father’s side in designing, manufacturing and importing hand knotted rugs dating to the mid‑1800s. Together with Melissa—who photographs and edits every listing—they curate each textile and also make one‑of‑a‑kind furniture and pillows. Operating from a flagship showroom in the NYC suburbs and balancing family life with two young children, they prioritize quality, craftsmanship, and the decorative story behind each piece. If you want authentic hand‑knotted construction presented with thoughtful photography and considered editing, Old New House® offers highly curated, sustainable‑luxury choices that sit comfortably in modern interiors.
