About the Item

52108 Vintage Turkish Angora Wool Rug, 05'01 x 07'01. Long-haired Turkish Angora wool rugs are esteemed for their plush texture, lasting resilience, and intricate designs, crafted from the wool of Angora goats mainly found in Turkey's Anatolian region. The rug-making process begins with shearing the goats for their fine wool, which is then meticulously cleaned, spun, and dyed. Skilled artisans employ traditional hand-weaving methods to fashion these rugs, often embellishing them with elaborate patterns and motifs inspired by Turkish heritage. Highly sought-after as decorative treasures worldwide, these rugs are predominantly produced in renowned rug-making hubs like Istanbul, Ankara, and Kayseri, reflecting Turkey's rich cultural legacy in artisanal craftsmanship. In this hand-knotted vintage Turkish Angora wool rug, the fusion of Minimalist Shibui and Wabi-Sabi styles creates an Organic Modern aesthetic that exudes timeless elegance. The barely-there diamond trellis design, complemented by neutral hues, embodies simplicity and tranquility, offering a sense of cozy contentment without overwhelming the space with clutter. Delicate hand-carved asymmetrical lines crisscross from top to bottom, their ephemeral presence adding an ethereal quality to the rug's design, evoking a sense of imperfection and impermanence inherent in Wabi-Sabi philosophy. Crafted for a lifestyle characterized by minimalism and simplicity, this vintage Turkish rug serves as a focal point in spaces seeking harmony and calmness. Its subtle design encourages a mindful appreciation of the beauty in simplicity, inviting moments of contemplation and introspection. Each knot and weave tells a story of craftsmanship and heritage, embodying the essence of Organic Modern style by seamlessly blending traditional techniques with contemporary sensibilities. Rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Turkey, this vintage Turkish angora wool rug not only enhances the visual appeal of a room but also adds depth and character through its understated elegance. Its timeless design transcends fleeting trends, making it a cherished heirloom that continues to inspire and delight for generations to come, embodying the essence of Organic Modernism in every thread and pattern.​ Rendered in variegated shades of cream, beige, and ivory with other neutral colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted angora wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 05'01 x 07'01. Date: 1980s. Late 20th Century.
