{"product_id":"11237-10x14-turkish-handmade-isparta-vintage-rug","title":"11237 - Turkish Isparta Oversized Rug 9'8\" x 13'8\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis charming rug sets a broad slate blue frame around its smoke gray field. On a smoke gray ground, small flower sprays in slate blue and brown are scattered across the whole field. At the center sits a small pale blue diamond medallion, soft at its outline. The slate blue frame widens at each corner, its inner edge cut in lobes and steps. The main border is gray brown, carrying graceful blue vines and rosettes, with a few rose touches along one end. Narrow brown guard stripes run on either side of it. The pile is low. It brings slate blue and smoke gray into a room, a cool, quiet ground for lighter furniture and pale walls. At 9'8\" by 13'8\", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1850 carpet weaving in Isparta has passed through many stages, and it was the Oriental Carpet Company that first carried its carpets overseas. The largest carpet exchange in Turkey in its day was the Isparta Carpet Palace. The workshops of Isparta, in the lake country of southwestern Turkey, spent the twentieth century weaving floral designs in a distinctly Turkish palette. As town rugs rather than tribal ones, they keep an orderly drawing, and the field reads calm from across a room. This rug shares that orderly drawing, with a center medallion, a framed field and a border laid out in balance. Its colors stay cool and close together, smoke gray, brown and slate blue, with a few rose notes at one end of the border.\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":68049523802425,"sku":"AL_11237_294x416","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11237_1.jpg?v=1794376378","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11237-10x14-turkish-handmade-isparta-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
