A deep aubergine field set inside a blue frame gives this charming rug its mood. At its center sits an oval medallion in bright and pale blue, with a dark plum center. The aubergine field has notched ends and carries faint flower sprays in blue. The corners and the wide border are deep blue, with dark flowers and leaves. The whole rug reads in deep blue and plum, with lighter blue where the low pile is worn. It reads as a bold piece in a room of white walls and pale wood. At 5'11" 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
Under the name “Isparta quality” the carpets of Isparta were famous in the early years of the Turkish Republic. In its day the Isparta Carpet Palace was the largest carpet exchange in Turkey. As town rugs rather than tribal ones, they keep an orderly drawing, and the field usually reads calm from across a room. This rug keeps that order in a single medallion and matching corners. It is hand-knotted wool on a cotton foundation from about the 1970s, and it has been professionally washed and cleaned.

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.
