About this rug

The salmon border and pale stone center give this lovely rug a soft, warm glow. Stone carries the whole field, set inside a long hexagonal medallion edged in a salmon zigzag. Down its center runs a column of small brown vessel shapes, flanked by two columns of stacked sprays in salmon and gray brown. Cream spandrels fill the four corners, where pretty rosettes sit among small octagons and arrow shapes. A handsome salmon main border carries a chain of cream and gray brown flowering sprays. On its inner side, a gray guard stripe holds rows of small square motifs, and on its outer side a cream guard stripe runs with a dark zigzag line. The pile is low, and the design reads clear from edge to edge. It settles into a calm, light room, its salmon and cream warming pale wood and linen. At 4'9" by 6'1", it fits a bedroom beside the bed, a study under a desk, or a small sitting area.

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 Isparta rugs

The largest carpet exchange in Turkey in its day was the Isparta Carpet Palace. Isparta lies in the lake country of southwestern Turkey, where workshops through the twentieth century wove floral designs in a distinctly Turkish palette. The palette is chalkier and softer, with more cream and rose. These are town rugs, not tribal ones, so the drawing is orderly and the field tends to read calm from across a room. This rug shares that chalky softness, with stone, cream and salmon carrying the whole design. Its sprays and small vessel shapes stand in orderly columns, and a salmon zigzag traces the edge of the hexagon.

The Craft

Made 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.
