{"product_id":"11093-4x4-turkish-handmade-anatolian-vintage-rug","title":"11093 - Turkish Anatolian Accent Rug 3'1\" x 4'6\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo slate blue panels with hooked diamonds give this lovely rug its bold character. Over a beige field, the panels sit one above the other, each with a striped frame and a small diamond pendant at either end. Inside each, a beige diamond edged in hooks holds a handsome stepped tan medallion crossed by slate blue spikes. Small hooked arrowheads fill the panel corners, two in orange and two in gold in each panel. Two small tan crosses sit between the panels, and hooked slate blue motifs mark the four corners of the field. The tan main border alternates pale stepped stars with rounded cartouches, each cartouche holding a small cross. Slate blue zigzag guard stripes run on either side of it. The pile is low across the whole rug, and every motif stays sharp. It slips into a quiet entry, where the slate blue panels give a pale floor a clear center. At 3'1\" by 4'6\", it fits an entry, a hallway corner or the space beside a bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe carpets called “Holbein” were woven in Anatolia as early as the 14th century and became popular in Europe from the 15th century on. So many western Anatolian carpets shipped to Europe in the 1600s and 1700s were given to churches in Romania and Hungary that they became known as “Transylvanian” carpets. 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. This rug keeps to that geometry from edge to edge, with hooked diamonds, stepped medallions and zigzag guard stripes, and no floral drawing at all. Its two panels repeat one design, one above the other. The tan of their medallions returns in the main border, and the slate blue sits hard against the beige field, the strongest contrast on the rug.\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.
