About the Item

Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug Size: 6'10" × 9'7" (208 × 292 cm) A masterclass in subtlety and sophistication, this mid-century Turkish Kilim rug epitomizes the understated elegance of Anatolian flatweaves. Handwoven circa 1950, the piece showcases the distinct qualities of tribal kilims—geometric precision, harmonious repetition, and earth-toned palettes—reimagined here in a muted, tonal symphony of taupe, sand, beige, and soft grey. The all-over pattern is composed of traditional Anatolian motifs rendered in a diamond lattice formation. These symbols, echoing cultural narratives of protection, fertility, and continuity, are rhythmically arranged to form a dense yet orderly composition that draws the eye without overwhelming the senses. The field is gently framed by a narrow border repeating minimalist chevron and triangle forms, adding a subtle architectural contour to the design. Crafted from hand-spun wool dyed with natural pigments, the rug exudes an organic warmth and texture. The low, flat weave not only enhances its visual softness but also speaks to the durability and practicality of Turkish kilims, originally woven for use in nomadic homes. Its neutral tones and timeless geometry make this kilim rug a highly versatile piece—ideal for anchoring both modern minimalist interiors and more eclectic, bohemian spaces. With its quiet charm and heritage craftsmanship, this rug tells a story through texture and tradition. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
