About the Item

A Glimpse into Anatolian Heritage This handmade vintage Turkish Kars rug, dating from the 1960s, is a remarkable example of robust Anatolian weaving traditions. Rugs from the Kars region in northeastern Turkey are celebrated for their strong, bold geometric designs, vibrant color palettes, and durable, earthy construction. This particular runner embodies the authentic charm and enduring quality of traditional Turkish village artistry, bringing a unique narrative to any space. Bold Design and Lively Palette The rug features a dominant and energetic deep red field that immediately captures attention. Running lengthwise, a series of distinct, repeating geometric diamond motifs define the central composition. These bold shapes are intricately detailed with smaller geometric patterns and abstract forms, adding layers of visual interest. The color palette is wonderfully lively, including contrasting shades of rich navy blue, lighter blues, creamy ivory, and touches of green and other subtle accents. These vibrant hues are typical of Kars weaving, reflecting the natural dyes and artistic preferences of the region. A series of geometric borders frames the field, reinforcing its tribal aesthetic and adding to its handcrafted appeal.

This traditional construction is a hallmark of authentic Turkish weaving, ensuring exceptional durability that can withstand the test of time and high-traffic areas.

Its robust character promises to serve as a long-lasting and cherished feature in your home. This piece has been professionally cleaned and is ready for immediate enjoyment.

It is ideal for adding warmth, character, and a touch of historical charm to hallways, entryways, or kitchens.
