About the Item
Antique Turkish Sivas rugs are a type of handwoven carpet that originate from the city of Sivas in Turkey. Sivas, located in central Anatolia, has a rich history of carpet weaving that dates back centuries. These rugs are highly regarded for their exquisite craftsmanship, intricate designs, and high-quality materials. Sivas rugs typically feature a wide range of intricate patterns and motifs, often inspired by the region's rich cultural heritage. These designs may include geometric patterns, floral motifs, medallions, and arabesques. The color palette of Sivas rugs is generally subtle and harmonious, with earthy tones, soft blues, reds, and ivory being commonly used. Antique Sivas rugs are handwoven using fine quality wool or a combination of wool and silk, which lends them a luxurious texture and sheen. The skilled weavers in the region employ traditional techniques, such as Turkish knots, to create the intricate designs. The rugs' high knot density contributes to their durability and longevity, making them prized possessions that can withstand the test of time. Sivas rugs come in various sizes, from small accent pieces to large room-sized carpets. While rectangular shapes are prevalent, you can also find circular and runner-style Sivas rugs. These rugs carry a significant historical and cultural value as they often represent the artistry and traditions of the Anatolian region. The weaving of Sivas rugs has been passed down through generations, and each piece can tell a unique story of the weaver and the community they belong to.
Due to their exceptional craftsmanship, antique Turkish Sivas rugs are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. They are considered valuable art pieces that not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of a space but also serve as tangible links to a rich cultural heritage. Eliko Rugs by David Ariel features this Sivas piece with a soft palette, and a straw field supporting a 14-lobed, pendanted elliptical medallion, set within en suite quarter medallion corners. The field is filled with a quadripartite symmetrical array of sickle leaves, floret sprays and other vegetal elements. Broad millefleurs border.. Medium weave, generally good condition.
