About the Item

Antique Turkish Ghiordes rug (size adjusted). Size: 12'6" × 15'9" (381 × 480 cm). This exquisite antique Turkish Ghiordes rug, dating from the 1860s, is a remarkable example of traditional Anatolian craftsmanship. Measuring approximately 16 by 13 feet, this rug features a timeless palette of soft, muted earth tones with warm browns, subtle ochres, and gentle blush accents, lending an understated elegance and vintage charm to any space. The rug's design is characterized by a delicate field scattered with stylized floral and geometric motifs, typical of the Ghiordes weaving tradition. These motifs are arranged in a seemingly spontaneous yet harmonious manner, creating a sense of organic flow across the surface. The detailed patterns include symbolic elements such as flowers, stars, and abstract tribal markings, all woven with meticulous attention to detail. The border frames the central field with a series of smaller, intricate motifs, enhancing the overall composition without overwhelming the central design. The rug’s surface displays a lovely patina that attests to its age and history, with areas of natural wear adding to its character and authenticity. Hand-knotted using fine wool, this rug showcases the high-quality natural dyes and skilled techniques characteristic of 19th-century Anatolian rugs. The dense knotting and soft wool pile provide durability as well as a pleasing tactile quality. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
