This antique hand-knotted Turkish Kiz Bergama wool rug dates from 1880 in the Anatolian style, presenting a red field paired with navy blue accents and intricate geometric motifs. The design incorporates a central diamond medallion, step-edged patterns, and latch-hook borders, alongside an original blue kilim end finish at the top, a fine weave, and even wear across a medium pile. Measuring 126 cm high by 100 cm wide and 1 cm deep, this small dowry weaving is hand washed and ready for use or display. Suitably designed for light domestic use, the piece serves well on the floor of a gentleman's library, a study, a hallway, or a bedroom as a warm accent beneath furniture or in an open walking space. The traditional motifs and palette of red and navy blue integrate smoothly into both traditional period interiors and eclectic modern living schemes, bringing authentic historic character and soft texture to the room.

FAQs

Originating from the Bergama region in Western Anatolia, Kiz Bergama rugs are traditional hand-knotted textiles woven by Turkish villagers, historically created by young women as part of their wedding dowry.

These rugs are traditionally constructed entirely from hand-spun sheep wool, utilizing natural plant dyes for the warp, weft, and pile on a flexible wool foundation.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-dyed wool with subtle colour variations, symmetrical Ghiordes knots, a soft all-wool warp and weft, and distinctive geometric latch-hook medallion patterns typical of the region.

Incorporate the rug into a room with neutral upholstery to make its geometric patterns a focal point, or pair it with dark timber furniture and leather accents to enhance warm interior schemes.

Vacuum regularly on a low suction setting without a rotating beat bar, rotate the rug annually to balance light exposure and wear, and consult a professional textile conservator for deep cleaning.
