8474 · 5'6" x 10' Turkish Manisa Area Rug

Large curled paisley scrolls in ivory and pale green fill this charming rug. A pale gray blue ground carries rows of large curled paisley scrolls in ivory and pale green, outlined in dark gray green. The pattern repeats across the whole surface, with no single motif to anchor the eye. A cream border carries a scatter of small blossoms in brown and muted pink, with a pale teal band along its inner edge and a dark guard stripe outside it. The colors are pale and even from washing, though every line of the drawing is still clear. The pile is short and level. The pale greens warm the light ground in a bright room. At 5'6" by 10', 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.
