Made with hand-knotted wool in Turkey circa 1950-1960, this 8x13 vintage rug is an exciting new mid-century curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of rare classics.
On the Design:
The design bears a strong resemblance to Ersari rugs—renowned for their rich colors, bold designs, and exquisite craftsmanship, as well as for being one of the largest Turkmen tribes. Here, creamy beige tones underscore the field and border, where geometric patterns—namely quartered medallions, rams horn motifs and similar geometric patterns—enjoy bright blue, creamy white and rich chocolate brown hues. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this piece as an exemplar of the traditional rug, yet it also offers a subtle departure from the norm—a brighter, slightly more playful take on nomadic rugs, with a refreshing beauty that lends a comfortable presence in any space. Its large size, too, further speaks to it as both a collectible and versatile choice, with vast design applications today.
Condition:
This vintage Turkish rug further enjoys good condition for its age and provenance. less
