Big cream and turquoise flowers bloom across the dark field of this lovely rug. Slate blue carries the whole field, scattered with large palmettes, leafy sprays and branching vines in cream, gray and turquoise. The design spreads freely with no medallion, though a turquoise palmette with a gray cross at its core marks the center. Smaller rosettes and curled leaves fill the spaces between the big flowers. A handsome sky blue border frames it all, carrying large palmettes and rosettes in cream, gray and slate blue along a thin dark vine. Cream guard stripes, set with small dark scrolls, run on either side of the border. The pile is low across the whole rug. The dense drawing of cream and turquoise lifts a room with dark wood floors. At 9' by 12', 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 Anatolian rugs
The 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. This rug carries that name with large, open floral work spread across its field. Its flowers are big and loosely outlined, with cream, gray and turquoise set against slate blue. The border repeats the same flower heads on sky blue, so field and frame share one family of shapes. Cream guard stripes divide the two blues cleanly, and the cool palette holds from the center to the outer edge.

Returns & exchangesMade 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.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
