4'2 x 8'6 Hand-Knotted Turkish Village Area Rug

Item Details

This mid-century hand-knotted Turkish village rug features a striking architectural composition centered by a large, stepped hexagonal medallion in a contrasting slate grey-blue. The medallion is set against a saturated terracotta field, anchored by four charcoal spandrels decorated with bold, angular tribal motifs. A narrow, intricate border of geometric floral rosettes on a tan ground frames the entire piece. The textile exhibits a pronounced abrash throughout, reflecting the traditional small-batch dyeing processes of the Anatolian highlands. Woven with hand-spun wool, this rug possesses the rugged durability and graphic simplicity characteristic of Western Anatolian tribal art.
