This antique Anatolian tribal rug originates from Cappadocia in central Turkey and dates to circa 1930. The piece is woven from wool and cotton, displaying a rectangular format with a terracotta red field and an ivory border. The central decoration consists of a stepped geometric medallion in charcoal and red, accented by secondary tones of green, gold and blue, while the borders contain repeated star motifs. The charcoal wool within the medallion shows deliberate corrosion that creates a raised texture across the design, accompanied by light age-related wear, fringes taped to the back at the top, and secure selvedges. The rug measures 143 cm high, 103 cm wide and 1 cm deep. Placed in a home today, this textile works well on a living room floor or in a bedroom to add warmth and a traditional nomadic aesthetic to the interior scheme.

FAQs

Antique Turkish rugs, historically crafted in Anatolia, are hand-knotted textiles known for their double-knot construction technique, geometric motifs, and saturated colour palettes derived from traditional dyeing methods.

Traditional Anatolian rugs are constructed using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool or cotton foundation warp and weft, utilising natural dyes extracted from local plants and minerals.

Authentic hand-knotted rugs exhibit slight variations in weave uniformity, clearly visible individual knots on the reverse side, and integrated fringe ends rather than sewn-on additions.

A geometric antique rug functions as a textural grounding piece in contemporary spaces, providing balance when paired with clean-lined modern furniture and neutral hardwood floors.

Regular vacuuming using a suction-only setting preserves the fibres, while immediate spot cleaning with damp cloth and periodic professional low-moisture cleaning maintain textile integrity.
