About the Item

Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug Size: 6'10" × 13'2" (208 × 401 cm) This 1940s vintage Turkish Kilim rug is a striking example of Anatolian flat-weave artistry, showcasing the timeless elegance of minimalist design with a tribal edge. Handwoven from wool in warm, naturally dyed tones, the piece displays alternating horizontal and vertical stripes in creamy ivory and a rich, golden brown. These earth-inspired hues are emblematic of traditional Turkish kilims, dyed using vegetable-based pigments, which lend a subtle variation and organic feel to the pattern. The rug is constructed from individually woven panels that have been expertly stitched together with visible hand-seaming, adding a layer of authenticity and artisanal character. This structural detail enhances the rug's tactile presence while visually emphasizing its hand-crafted origin. What sets this kilim apart is its rhythmic stripe composition, where the repetition of thick and thin bands creates a sense of movement and balance. While the stripes are mostly symmetrical, slight irregularities in width and weave reinforce its handmade nature and add charm and warmth. The flat-weave construction makes the rug lightweight yet durable, perfect for layering or use in high-traffic spaces. This vintage Turkish kilim rug not only serves as a decorative piece but also tells a story of cultural heritage and skilled craftsmanship. Ideal for modern, bohemian, or rustic interiors, it blends effortlessly with both neutral and bold palettes, bringing texture and warmth to any room. 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.
