About the Item

Discover the profound spiritual and artistic beauty of this exceptional Vintage Anatolian Turkish Prayer Rug. Hand-knotted with authentic craftsmanship, this rug is a testament to the timeless tradition of prayer rug weaving, where every design element holds deep meaning. This beautiful rug features a magnificent abrash red color in the central field, a rich hue with natural variations that create a profound sense of depth and history. The term "abrash" refers to the subtle and charming color gradations that occur when natural vegetable dyes are used, a hallmark of authentic tribal and village weaving. The Mihrab, or prayer arch, at the top of the rug is accentuated with beautiful abrash shades of green and yellow, a striking and harmonious contrast against the red field. The masterful combination of the rich red field and the lively green and yellow Mihrab accents makes this rug a truly wonderful design. The use of natural vegetable dyes brings a sense of "living colors" to the rug—the colors do not simply remain static but gradually change and develop different hues as the rug ages, imbuing it with a sense of life and a continuously evolving story.
