A cream medallion sits in the middle of the salmon panel of this lovely rug. A salmon panel with pointed ends forms the field, worn to pale streaks. A splendid cream medallion in the middle is a round flower head with a ring of small petals, and a small teardrop pendant sits at each end. Large cream scrolls with curling stems fill the corners and run along the sides. The main border is cream, carrying a charming scrolling vine of gray beige blossoms and leaves, with narrow bands inside and outside it. The pile is worn across much of the salmon ground. The dense drawing keeps the gray beige lines clear against the warm field. At 5'1" by 9'6", 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. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
About Manisa rugs
In Demirci, a district of Manisa, almost every household has been known to keep a carpet loom. Since 1997 the hand-woven carpets of Gordes, a district of Manisa, have carried a protected geographical mark. Inland from the Aegean coast, Manisa weaves between two traditions. The geometric medallions of Anatolian village work and the softer floral borders of the western workshops often meet in the same rug. This piece holds that blend in a round central medallion framed by scrolling vines. Faded warmth defines the palette, which relies on salmon and cream. Manisa pieces were made for houses rather than for export, so the drawing is unfussy.

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.
