Understated Anatolian Accent Rug, c. 1900s

About the Item

Understated Anatolian Accent Rug, c. 1900s 1.88 x 1.16 m Anatolia, the western region of Turkey, has a long-standing rug-weaving tradition, dating at least as far back as the 13th Century. As the explorer Marco Polo once wrote, ‘Here they make the most beautiful silks and carpets, and in the most beautiful colours.’ It is these carpets, among the first to reach the European market in the Early Modern era, that can be spotted in many of the paintings of the Old Masters, including those of Holbein, Vermeer, and Reubens. This beautiful example, dating to the turn of the last century, with an earthy colour palette and simple drawing. The unusual colour in the central field provides a complimentary backdrop to the monochrome overall design, framed by eight individual borders, the central band featuring a rare and charming rose-motif over an ivory ground. In very good condition for everyday use, still retaining its order borders and fringes on all sides. An exquisite rug, with a tribal charisma and personality, well suited to a stylish setting.
