This handwoven Anatolian rug from Turkey, measuring 157 by 248 cm, dates to the 1960s. Crafted entirely from high-quality wool for both weft and warp, it features a central field in saturated, cool-toned violet. The centerpiece is a large, geometric medallion in shades of red, white, and beige, framed by multi-layered borders with repeating geometric and floral motifs in yellow, dark blue, and brown. The pile is dense and even—about 200,000 knots per square meter—with a matte, soft yet robust texture, reflecting the craftsmanship of its era. The rug is in good condition, with no major stains, tears, or repairs; minor irregularities are consistent with handcrafting. Its vivid composition and geometric patterns evoke the spirit of 1960s Anatolia, when traditional motifs merged with bold, contrasting color palettes. The violet field and deep reds conjure images of Eastern bazaars, where color and light dictated the rhythm of daily life. Every detail—from the stepped lines to the floral borders—tells a story of generations of weaving, of hands repeating time-honored gestures, imparting a timeless character to the piece. This rug can serve as a focal point in a living or dining room, particularly when paired with natural wood, low-slung sofas with clean lines, or minimalist mid-century furniture. It may be combined with neutral-toned accessories to enhance the depth of the purple and red, or with ceramics and textiles referencing oriental aesthetics. The rug suits both classic collector interiors and contemporary spaces, where its bold colors and patterns will provide an intriguing counterpoint
