{"product_id":"11066-3x13-turkish-handmade-anatolian-vintage-runner-rug","title":"11066 - Turkish Anatolian Runner Rug 3'3\" x 13'4\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eA column of orange hexagonal medallions runs the length of this lovely runner. Over a deep red field, each hexagon carries a stepped ivory outline with small hooks, and short stems link one to the next. Inside, slim bars cross around small diamonds, and a few cores hold blue crosses. Pretty eight-pointed stars in ivory, pink and blue fill the red between them. A narrow guard stripe of small triangles in blue, gold and pink frames the field. Next comes a beautiful ivory band with a row of double-hooked motifs in blue, gold and pink. The outer border is red, set with rosettes and small leaves. The pile is low throughout. It grounds a long hallway, letting the orange hexagons glow against the deep red. At 3'3\" by 13'4\", it fits a hallway or the space along the side of a bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nomadic herders of Turkey, the Yoruk, live in black goat-hair tents and travel between winter and summer pastures. From 1908 to 1914 the Oriental Carpet Manufacturers employed 50 to 60 thousand carpet weavers in Anatolia alone, working at home. Anatolian is the broad name for the village weaving of the Turkish interior, and it covers a lot of ground. The shared character is geometry over floral drawing. These were house rugs, woven to be used. This runner is geometric from end to end, with its orange hexagons strung one after another down the full length. Its colors sit in strong contrast: orange medallions on deep red, a bright ivory band, and touches of blue in the stars and the guard stripe. The outer red border closes it all with a quiet row of rosettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery 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 \u0026amp; cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Storied Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68025949225273,"sku":"AL_11066_100x406","price":1125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11066_1_1342909c-90b4-455b-bd2b-3f741ad2f1ef.jpg?v=1794192925","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11066-3x13-turkish-handmade-anatolian-vintage-runner-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
