{"product_id":"11128-7x9-turkish-handmade-kayseri-vintage-rug","title":"11128 - Turkish Kayseri Area Rug 6'7\" x 9'5\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eRows of rose and dark blue octagons give this lovely rug its quiet, steady rhythm. Gray brown carries the whole field from across a room, a close lattice of brown stepped crosses on a sand ground. Each opening holds an octagonal gul with a rose core, and toward one end the guls take dark blue outlines and sage centers. The field is an all-over repeat with no medallion, and a single row of rose crosses runs across it below the middle. The handsome main border sets rose and dark blue hooked diamonds on a sand ground. A rose guard stripe of small stepped motifs lines its inside, and narrow olive and brown stripes run around the outside. The pile is low, and a few pale patches show in the field and along one side. It slips into a calm room, its rose and dark blue notes lifting all that sand and brown. At 6'7\" by 9'5\", it fits a living room with the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, or beside a queen bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the Turkish yearbook of 1927, Kayseri had 5,070 looms, weaving about 15,200 carpets a year for export. This rug is built as a lattice, brown stepped crosses on a sand ground with an octagonal gul in every opening. Rose cores fill most of them, and toward one end the guls take dark blue outlines and sage centers. A single row of rose crosses runs across the field below the middle, and the sand border repeats the rose and dark blue in hooked diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it.
