About the Item

Velvet-Like Antique Tekke Soft Plum, Peacock Teal, Mocha, Espresso, Linen Beige About: STOP right there - this Antique Afghan Tekke piece is a Stunning Example of some of the best this village has to offer. This wool is nearly softer than velvet because of the incredible quality of wool these weavers use for their textiles. This is a luxurious piece, meaning it is floppy, with an incredible and yummy handle that can be thrown around like a blanket. Perfect for an office, bedroom or living space where hopefully you will indulge and take your socks off because your bare feet will love being on this rug. Some of the best color combinations I've ever seen - simple, soft, yet striking in a subtle way - muted plum, peacock blue-green, with tons of softer earthy pastel-like hues that elevate the rug in the most beautiful way. Make sure to order a pad as these thinner-bodied pieces always benefit from them, and even if you are layering on jute or sisal it is a good idea because our pads are lower profile so you'll get the benefit and still keep the layered look. You will LOVE this unique piece! Size: 7 x 10.4 Age: Antique, C. 1920-30's Pile: Low / Med with nice character-rich patina there and there - this piece is just downright amazing. FULL skirt borders on both sides, wool pile on wool foundation This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one in the world, no others are available. Because of the nature and age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities and age-related wear are likely to exist and are not considered defects. This rug is also available with a custom cut pad (sold separately).
