A dusty rose medallion with a navy heart sits at the center of this charming rug. Cream carries the whole field, scattered with rose buds on graceful dark vines and larger rose palmettes. The medallion is a many-pointed star, its points set with slate blue boteh and navy ovals around a cream ring and a navy core. Pendants run out from it at either end, first a round olive and cream palmette, then a dusty rose one. Dusty rose spandrels with stepped cream tips fill the four corners, holding navy palmettes and boteh. The handsome olive main border carries navy and cream palmettes linked by curling vines. Narrow guard stripes of small rose flower heads run on either side of it. The pile is low across the rug, and small pale specks show the foundation in places. It settles into a calm room, the cream and dusty rose warm against the olive frame. At 7'10" by 12', it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.
Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. Hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, vintage, approx. 50 years (1970s). Condition: professionally washed & cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.
About Anatolian rugs
The nomadic herders of Turkey, the Yoruk, live in black goat-hair tents and travel between winter and summer pastures. Anatolian is the broad name for the village weaving of the Turkish interior, and it covers a lot of ground. Its shared palette reads warm and chalky: cream, rose, soft green, madder. This rug keeps that warm palette, with a cream field, a dusty rose medallion and spandrels, and an olive main border. Its field is closely worked with flowering vines and small palmettes, and navy picks out the medallion core, the spandrels, the border and flowers across the field. A column of pendants and open lobed shapes runs down the center, with the medallion at its middle.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
