Copper glows up through the denim across the center of this lovely rug. The denim field is laid with graceful vines and leaf sprays, picked out in thin near-black lines, with teal pooling in places. At the center sits a faint lobed medallion, outlined in near-black and set on a patch of copper. A handsome border on the same denim ground carries large scrolling vines and rosettes outlined in near-black. A narrow near-black guard stripe divides the border from the field. The pile is low, and copper shows through across much of the field, strongest down the center. The dense drawing stays quiet under the denim and teal, so the copper glow brings warmth into a room of grays and whites. At 6'4" by 8'10", it fits a living room with the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, or beside a queen bed.
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
A 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 carpets of Isparta, known as “Isparta quality,” were famous in the early years of the Turkish Republic. Isparta rugs are town rugs rather than tribal ones, so the drawing is orderly and the field reads calm from across a room. This rug shares that order, with a centered medallion, a framed border and a field that settles into one denim tone at a distance. Its color sits in a single cool layer of denim and teal, and the motifs are outlined in near-black. Copper comes through that layer down the middle, so the medallion seems to glow from beneath.

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.
