{"product_id":"11176-7x10-turkish-handmade-isparta-vintage-rug","title":"11176 - Turkish Isparta Area Rug 6'7\" x 9'6\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis lovely rug is set with rows of large rosettes in blue and rose. Within a gold field, rosettes alternate with spiky palmettes, small flower heads and pairs of serrated green leaves that arc between them. There is no medallion: the field is an all-over repeat, laid in orderly rows from end to end. The handsome rust border carries a lattice of linked compartments, each holding a small flower head. Narrow guard stripes of tiny blue and green diamonds run along either side of it. The pile is low, and a few patches have worn down to the foundation. It slips into a sitting area, with the rust border framing the blue and rose of the field. At 6'7\" by 9'6\", 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\u003eA single agency in Isparta had about 25,294 square meters of carpet woven in homes in the first half of 1911, the busiest agent of the Oriental Carpet Manufacturers. The Isparta Carpet Palace was in its day the largest carpet exchange in its region and in all of Turkey. Isparta lies in the lake country of southwestern Turkey, where workshops through the twentieth century wove floral designs in a distinctly Turkish palette. These are town rugs, not tribal ones, so the drawing is orderly. This rug keeps that orderly floral plan, with rosettes, palmettes and green leaves set in steady rows over the whole field. Its rust border holds the gold field and its blue and rose blossoms inside narrow stripes of small diamonds.\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. It ships folded and fully insured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Storied Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68026306036025,"sku":"AL_11176_200x290","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11176_1.jpg?v=1794183658","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11176-7x10-turkish-handmade-isparta-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
