A cream diamond lattice runs over the whole face of this charming rug. On a clay red field, the lattice lines are picked out in cream with small orange ticks, and dark blue shading runs along each side. Inside every diamond sits a pretty star rosette in cream, with a green dot at its heart. Small green ovals mark the points where the lines cross. There is no medallion: the field is an all-over repeat that runs right to the edges. The pile is low across much of the field, and the foundation shows in pale patches near one end. In places the red reads paler. It settles into a bedroom or a study, where the clay red and cream give a quiet warmth. At 4'11" by 8'9", it fits a bedroom beside the bed, a study under a desk, or a small sitting area.
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
The carpets of Isparta, known as “Isparta quality,” were famous in the early years of the Turkish Republic. Isparta rugs are town rugs, not tribal ones, so the drawing is orderly and the field tends to read calm from across a room. This rug shares that order, with the same diamond repeated in straight rows from end to end, each one holding a star rosette. From a few steps back, the clay red and cream settle into a quiet, mottled surface. The small green ovals at every crossing add a cool note to the warm red, and the lattice runs right to the edges with no frame around it.

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.
