About the Item
Antique Turkish Sivas Rug
Size: 11'5" × 17'0" (347 × 518 cm)
This exquisite antique Sivas rug from circa 1920 is a superb example of Turkish textile artistry at its most refined. Woven in the historic weaving center of Sivas in central Anatolia, the carpet reveals a masterful balance of intricate design, subtle coloration, and aristocratic elegance that exemplifies the region’s revered rug-making traditions.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the rug showcases a remarkably delicate botanical pattern, composed of palmettes, rosettes, serrated leaves, and flowing vines. These elements are symmetrically arranged across a vast open field, presenting a sophisticated rendition of classical Persian-inspired motifs filtered through the unique aesthetic sensibilities of Sivas artisans. The vertical axis of stylized floral columns hints at a garden-like composition, giving the carpet a sense of rhythm and architectural grace.
What sets this rug apart is its ethereal palette. Rendered in an understated medley of soft beige, pale camel, dusty rose, and faded taupe, the colors are both aged and harmonious, offering a whisper of past grandeur rather than bold declaration. The muted tones and gentle contrasts speak to a timeworn elegance that only authentic antique rugs can convey.
The composition is framed by a series of narrow, finely detailed borders that echo the central motifs, reinforcing the carpet's unity and balance. The subtle abrash throughout—the gentle gradation in color caused by hand-dyeing and wear—adds to its charm and attests to its authenticity.
Woven with high-quality wool, the rug features a relatively fine weave and a low, even pile, which enhances the clarity of the design while allowing for fluidity in drape and display.
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.
