This vintage Anatolian rug exemplifies the artistry of traditional Turkish weaving, crafted entirely from handwoven wool. The design centres around a stylised mihrab (prayer niche), framed by floral motifs and symbolic geometric patterns that are characteristic of Anatolian village rugs.
The palette is vibrant yet balanced, featuring rich shades of crimson red, burnt orange, golden yellow, soft gray, and ivory, all brought together with striking black outlines that enhance the visual rhythm. The main field is filled with small animal and abstract motifs, while the layered borders present bold stepped and hooked designs, creating a dynamic interplay between symmetry and movement.
Anatolian rugs like this one carry both artistic and cultural value—woven not only as functional floor coverings but also as expressions of heritage, faith, and identity. Its warm colors, fine details, and tribal charm make it a captivating piece suitable for collectors or as a statement accent in modern and traditional interiors alike.
