About this rug

Red roses in full bloom catch the eye first on this wonderful rug. At the center, a round bouquet of red and brown roses with sage leaves sits on a camel field, in place of a medallion. Graceful twisting vines in brown frame it in an open cartouche, with a spray of roses above and below. Beyond the camel center, a wide brown ground carries scrolling leaves and scattered roses. Each corner holds a cream oval of roses beneath a ribbon bow in red and cream. A handsome border runs a chain of cream and brown leaves, crossed at intervals by small ties. Narrow cream and brown guard stripes edge it on either side. The pile is low across the whole face, with no worn patches. It settles into a room of warm neutrals, where the red roses lift the camel and cream. At 8'1" by 10', 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 Isparta rugs

The Isparta carpet factory, a center of the craft for a wide region, kept working until 2008. The Isparta Carpet Palace was in its day the largest carpet exchange in its region and in all of Turkey. The workshops of Isparta, in the lake country of southwestern Turkey, spent the twentieth century weaving floral designs in a distinctly Turkish palette. That palette runs softer and chalkier. As town rugs rather than tribal ones, they keep an orderly drawing. Its layout is orderly from end to end, with the same ribbon bow, cream oval and spray of roses set in all four corners.

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.
