A plain red border frames a field full of rosettes on this charming rug. Over an emerald field, pink rosettes and blue-centered rosettes alternate along every row, set out in a checkerboard. Small red flower sprays and graceful curling leaves on thin dark vines fill the spaces between them, with touches of cream in the petals. There is no medallion, and the pattern repeats over the whole field. The border is a handsome red band with no motifs, set straight against the field and running to the edge. The pile is low across the rug, and the foundation shows in streaks through the field and the border. It brings a fresh emerald note to a room, and the red band gives the busy green a clear edge. At 6'2" by 9'5", 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
Carpet weaving gave work to poor families in Isparta, Burdur and places like them, an Ottoman report of 1917 notes. Until 2008 the Isparta carpet factory was still working, a center of the craft for a wide region. Isparta rugs are town rugs, not tribal ones, so the drawing is orderly. This rug shares that order. Pink rosettes and blue-centered rosettes alternate in a checkerboard, and curling leaves repeat around each one in step. Small red sprays fill the gaps, so the field is covered from one side to the other. Its border is a single plain band of red, a clear frame for the emerald, pink and cream within.

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.
