2'9 x 16' Hand-Knotted Turkish Kazak Style Carpet or Stair Runner

Item Details

This contemporary Turkish wool runner is rendered in the iconic Kazak style, featuring a bold horizontal banded design that draws from 19th-century Caucasian tribal traditions. The field is composed of alternating stripes of deep madder red, indigo blue, and earthy green, each meticulously decorated with ivory and terracotta geometric motifs including stepped lozenges, eight-pointed stars, and protective ‘S’ hook symbols. Hand-knotted using the symmetrical Ghiordes knot, the textile possesses a dense, resilient pile and a robust handle. The saturated hues and intentional abrash mimic traditional vegetable dyes, while the clean, uniform finishing of the selvedges and fringe confirms its 21st-century Turkish manufacture. This piece serves as a durable and visually striking bridge between antique tribal aesthetics and modern interior functionality.
