This large vintage Turkish rug from the 1970s is handwoven in wool with a cotton foundation. The deep, saturated red with a warm undertone forms the backdrop for an elaborate, symmetrical medallion in shades of beige, taupe, and brown, enriched by intricate floral and foliate motifs. Smaller floral sprays, rendered in similar tones, are positioned in the corners of the central field, completing the harmonious composition. The border is a contrasting light beige, featuring a repeating pattern of stylized flowers and geometric elements in red, brown, and black, framed by thin inner and outer guard stripes. The rectangular shape and balanced proportions emphasize the rug’s classical character. Its matte finish, with a slight sheen and soft texture typical of hand-knotted wool, highlights both craftsmanship and tactile appeal. The clarity of pattern and precision of knotting reflect a high level of skill. The rug is in excellent vintage condition, showing only minimal signs of use, no stains or damage, with intact edges and fringes, and no visible repairs or restoration.

Each detail seems to resonate with the atmosphere of old workshops, where patience
