This vintage Turkish rug from the 1960s exemplifies handwoven craftsmanship, with a wool pile on a cotton foundation. The primary color is a faded, matte terracotta red with a warm undertone, accented by an intricate all-over floral and vine pattern in shades of ivory, grey, and deep blue. The wide border features a repeating floral motif, providing a strong contrast to the more serene central field. The rug displays a low, soft pile with a slightly worn texture and natural abrash (subtle color variations), presenting balanced proportions characteristic of traditional Turkish style with classic Persian influences. The edges and corners are intact with no fraying or significant damage. Condition: excellent vintage, showing minimal traces of use and no major restorations. The rug has been washed and is ready for immediate use.
