This is a stunning antique Turkish Anatolian wool rug, rich and deeply rooted in regional tradition. Woven by hand, likely in the early 20th century, this piece exemplifies the artistry of Anatolian weavers.
The rug features a deeply saturated, earthy palette of walnut brown, charcoal, and warm beige, creating a dramatic and grounded visual impact. At the centre lies a layered, medallion-like motif framed by rosettes and floral elements, reflecting Persian-influenced symmetry often found in Anatolian workshop rugs. The intricate vine scrolls and latticework fill the field with a rhythmic, almost musical elegance, balanced and deliberate.
Its border is striking, a multi-band frame with repeating stylised floral and leaf patterns, punctuated by corner spandrels that resemble feathers or boteh motifs, nodding to fertility and protection symbols. The use of ivory in the corners and outlining details adds depth and contrast, enhancing the rug’s overall visual appeal.
Crafted entirely from hand-spun wool and dyed using natural pigments, this rug bears the patina of age with grace. The slight abrash and nuanced wear elevate its vintage charm, making it not just a floor covering but a piece of living history, a reflection of Anatolia’s weaving heritage and cultural soul. Ideal for collectors or those seeking to add sophistication to a space with texture, history, and warmth.
