15035 · 5'6" x 8'11" Turkish Isparta Area Rug

A dark brown medallion with a cream oval heart centers this lovely rug. From across a room the field reads light gray, and closer in it is ivory, strewn with graceful garlands of vines and flowers in sand and gray brown. The medallion itself is lobed, with small pendants at the top and bottom, and its cream oval core holds a bouquet of flowers. A line of small cream dots rings the oval. In each corner, the brown of the border steps in around a handsome cream oval cartouche filled with flowers. The main border has a brown ground carrying rosettes, leafy sprays and pale blossoms in cream and sand, with a larger bloom at the center of each end. A cream guard stripe with small brown sprigs runs around the outside. The pile is low across the whole rug. It brings brown and cream into a quiet room, and the dark center gives the pale field a strong point to settle around. At 5'6" by 8'11", 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.
