Vintage Turkish Carpet, Timeless Appeal Meets Stylish Durability

About the Item

51184 Vintage Turkish Yastik Rug, 01'08 x 02'06. This enchanting hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Yastik rug showcases a harmonious blend of red and tan tones, drawing the viewer into a world of intriguing Anatolian symbolism and cultural heritage. The rug's central feature is a stepped diamond medallion, adorned with a hooked tribal motif known as the dragon symbol. In Anatolian tradition, the dragon is revered as the guardian of treasures, secret objects, and the tree of life itself, imbuing this Turkish rug with a sense of mystical protection and deep-rooted cultural significance. Running vertically along the sides of the rug, two tan-colored ziggurat motifs are outlined with delicate rosettes, adding a touch of elegance to the composition. These ziggurats are further embellished with dual-pronged comb motifs, which hold special meaning in Turkish culture. The comb is often associated with marriage and birth, symbolizing the desire for union and the protection of these sacred life events from the evil eye. This careful placement of the comb motifs alongside the ziggurats enhances the rug's narrative, telling a story of love, union, and the hope for a prosperous future. The lower section of the rug features a red triangle shape that showcases an earrings motif, flanked by comb symbols on either side. The earrings, a symbol of a woman's wish to marry, add a layer of personal expression to this already meaningful piece. Framing the entire composition is a floral bud meander border, which gracefully ties together the rug's motifs and colors. This border not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also represents the continuity of life and tradition. This vintage Yastik rug is more than just a decorative piece—it's a woven narrative of protection, love, and cultural heritage. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Turkey. Measures: 01'08 x 02'06. Date: 1950's. Mid-20th Century.
