About the Item

51941 Distressed Vintage Red Turkish Sivas Rug, 03'10 x 06'09. Distressed Turkish Sivas rugs are traditional rugs originating from Sivas in central Anatolia, Turkey. These authentic Sivas rugs undergo intentional aging processes such as distressing to achieve a weathered and worn appearance, fading the colors, and softening the textures. Characteristics of distressed Turkish Sivas rugs often include faded colors, frayed edges, and worn-in patterns. Despite their aged appearance, these Turkish Sivas rugs are meticulously crafted from high-quality wool using traditional hand-knotting techniques. They blend the allure of antique rugs with modern durability, making them prized for their vintage charm and ability to add character to any space. Distressed Turkish Sivas rugs are sought-after items within interior design circles for their unique aesthetic and timeless appeal. Exuding both nostalgic charm and quiet sophistication, this hand-knotted wool distressed vintage Sivas rug captures the essence of relaxed refinement and Turkish weaving artistry. At its core lies a resplendent round medallion, adorned with a delicate interplay of stylized florals and foliage, and anchored by cross motif palmette pendants intricately embellished with naturalistic elements and verdant foliage. The lush frondescence that surrounds this centerpiece adds a touch of opulence, enveloping the observer in an enchanting spell. Beneath, a distressed red field unfolds, imbuing the composition with an air of romance, while the dramatic corner spandrels, deep and arresting, echo the medallion design, contributing to a look of vibrant grandeur adorned with romantic connotations. Completing the formal composition is a palmette and acanthus scrollwork border, meticulously enclosed with an inner and outer floral meander guard border, providing a refreshing denouement to the intricate design. This elegant Turkish Sivas rug serves as a symphony of joy and feminine energy, celebrating the harmonious interplay of form and color.
