Hand-Knotted Turkish Wool Area Rug

The field is framed by an unusual border, which consists of interlocking polygons of different sizes with stylized memling edges; these contain vases of flowers or geometric motifs. Selvedges are overcast in gray, the rug finishing at either end with short ivory wool warp fringe. The rug is unmarked.
