This vintage handmade rug from Turkey, dating from the 1970s, is crafted from natural wool on a cotton foundation. The design features a repeating geometric diamond pattern, each enclosing a stylized floral or star motif outlined in darker brown. The border is composed of smaller geometric ornaments, gently contrasting with the central field. The color palette is subtle and harmonious, dominated by warm beige and light brown tones, accented with faded peach and soft taupe. The surface has a matte finish and a slightly coarse texture, characteristic of handwoven wool. The rug is flat-woven with a low pile and tightly woven edges, reflecting traditional weaving techniques. It is preserved in excellent condition, with minor, age-consistent wear – gentle fading and slight abrading that underscore its authenticity and vintage provenance. This rug speaks of the Anatolian village workshops of the 1970s, where the repetition of motifs brought order to everyday life and natural dyes mellowed over time into a soft, muted palette. The geometric rhythm reflects a desire for symmetry, so valued in traditional Turkish homes. The matte surface absorbs light, as if collecting the stories of previous generations, while the tactile handwork is a reminder of the dignity of craft. The rug can be paired with simple, contemporary light wood furniture as well as with oriental or rustic antiques. It would work well in a spacious living room,
