About the Item

71617 Antique Turkish Sparta Rug, 13'00 x 15'00. In the mystical town of Sparta nestled within Turkey's southwestern expanse, Turkish Sparta rugs embody an enchanting narrative of heritage and allure. Delicate geometric patterns, floral motifs, and regal medallion designs grace these remarkable creations, each thread murmuring tales of ancient symbolism. Rich hues of red, blue, green, gold, and ivory, crafted from the finest wool sourced from local sheep and occasionally enhanced with silk, compose a palette of opulent luxury. These rugs, steeped in tradition and meticulously crafted using the Turkish or symmetrical knotting technique, possess an enduring resilience that withstands the tests of time and the rigors of frequent use. Whether as understated accents or commanding focal points, Turkish Sparta rugs emanate both functionality and charm, suffusing any space with an irresistible warmth, sophistication, and an aura of ageless fascination. Rich in color and exuding a striking appeal with its beguiling ambiance, this hand-knotted wool antique Turkish Sparta rug gracefully marries Art Nouveau sensibilities with the opulent allure of Venetian design. The abrashed field unveils a captivating narrative, with a cusped navy blue central medallion serving as the focal point amidst an all-over floral motif reminiscent of an enchanting garden symphony. Arabesque vines, millefleur sprays, blooming palmettes, curved hyacinths, leafy tendrils, roses, and floral sprigs intertwine across a soft pink backdrop, each element echoing the organic forms and flowing lines characteristic of Art Nouveau. Encircled by a botanical palmette border, flanked by inner and outer floral meander guard bands, this antique Sparta rug exudes timeless elegance and sophistication. Its intricate design, inspired by the natural world and enriched with Venetian opulence, creates a harmonious fusion of styles that captivates the senses. The richness of its hues, drawn from both Art Nouveau's soft, muted tones and Venetian design's jewel-like colors, imbues the space with warmth and depth, while luxurious metallic accents add a touch of regal splendor. With its commanding presence and captivating allure, this antique Sparta rug becomes more than just a floor covering—it is a work of art that elevates any interior to new heights of beauty and sophistication. Whether gracing the floors of a grand ballroom or adorning the intimate confines of a cozy parlor, it infuses the space with a sense of history, luxury, and timeless charm, inviting inhabitants to lose themselves in its intricate beauty and indulge in the romance of a bygone era. Rendered in variegated shades of mauve, rose, raspberry pink, tan, ecru, taupe, dark pink, navy blue, royal blue, viridian, sage, robin's egg blue, violet, pistachio, and ink blue with other accent colors.

Antique Pink Turkish Sivas Rug
Located in Dallas, TX
71257 Antique Pink Turkish Sivas Rug, 13’06 x 22’00. A rare and resplendent treasure of Anatolian artistry, this hand-knotted wool antique pink Turkish Sivas rug is a majestic example of refined elegance at scale—an extraordinary textile that transcends mere function and enters the realm of cultural prestige. Woven in the heart of Turkey’s historic Sivas weaving ateliers, its oversize proportions were once reserved for the grand salons and ceremonial halls of nobility, and today offer an exclusive opportunity to transform large spaces into bespoke havens of cultivated luxury. Its field, rendered in a softly faded rose-pink hue, evokes a romantic, timeworn splendor—an aesthetic of noble restraint and feminine strength. From this poetic ground unfurls a floral symphony: a radiant central medallion, blooming with lotus-like palmettes and framed by arabesque vines, anchors the composition in quiet power. Delicate tendrils and botanical tracery dance across the sumptuous field in rhythmic balance, whispering of nature's eternal elegance and the human desire to mirror its order in art. Surrounding this exquisite work of art is a regal navy border, filled with floral cartouches and intricate scrollwork that lends definition and contrast, like an architectural frame elevating a priceless painting. The interplay of subdued blush, ivory, and deep indigo echoes the palette of a fading Ottoman court, offering an experience that feels at once grounded and ethereal—a cherished heirloom born of the earth yet imbued with transcendent grace. This antique Sivas rug is more than an object of beauty; it is a symbol of legacy and mindful living. By preserving an exceptional piece of textile heritage created entirely by hand, one supports a lineage of craftsmanship that values patience, artistry, and the natural world. Ideal for a collector, designer, or curator of experience, this singular masterpiece offers not only aesthetic grandeur but a rarefied narrative of cultural stewardship and timeless sophistication—the kind of authenticity that cannot be replicated. Rendered in a variegated shades of blush pink, deep navy blue, creamy ivory, and gentle baby blue with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 13’06 x 22’00.
