About the Item

This rare piece of Cappadocian carpet, distilled from the ancient weaving traditions of Central Anatolia in the mid-18th century, is a cultural heritage that has survived to the present day. With its worn surface and natural color gradients, it proudly bears the marks of time; you hear the rhythm of the past in every pattern and fiber. - Period & Origin: Hand-woven on traditional looms in the Cappadocia region between 1750 and 1775. - Pattern Structure: Red geometric motifs are interconnected with brown lines and skillfully spread across a warm-toned ground. These motifs are rooted in the region's narrative tradition as symbols of protection and abundance. - Color Palette: Red and brown tones on a yellowish brown ground, brought to life with natural root dyes that have patinated over time. - Material: Hand-spun wool, colored using traditional methods. Surface abrasions enhance both authenticity and a sense of lived-in experience. - Condition: Despite centuries of use, the patterns are still discernible; the overall shape of the carpet is well-preserved.
