This hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Yastik rug presents a serene palette of earthy neutrals that softly whisper of its storied past. The central design features an elongated cutout field, framed by a curvilinear protection border, which gracefully tapers into a vase-like silhouette that draws the eye inward. Within this central medallion design, traditional Anatolian symbols of protection are delicately woven, including stylized florals and foliage, which serve both as a decorative element and a cultural testament to the weaver’s heritage.

The vintage Turkish rug is adorned with captivating tribal motifs that bring an air of mystique and antiquity to the piece. The outer border showcases an intricate succession of amulet symbols, believed to shield against the evil eye. Interspersed among the center medallion are geometric shapes and motifs reminiscent of the tree of life, which signify longevity, growth, and spiritual strength. The corners are accentuated with stylized amulets that further infuse the rug with a protective aura, a common theme in traditional Turkish weaving.

Framed with an esoteric protection border, this vintage Yastik rug carries the hallmark of a time-honored artistry. The inner field’s muted tones of tan and brown, coupled with faded touches of taupe, enhance the rug's vintage appeal while maintaining a harmonious balance.
