This large vintage rug from Turkey, dating to the 1960s, is handwoven from wool and cotton, featuring a slightly coarse, matte-textured surface. The composition is dominated by a deep, cool-toned blue, accented with warm terracotta orange and muted beige, forming the backdrop for intricate motifs. The central field displays six large octagonal medallions—alternating in blue and beige—each filled with star and cross patterns in contrasting colors. Between the medallions, smaller diamond elements in shades of orange and beige are interspersed. The border consists of several bands: a zigzag pattern closest to the center, followed by a checkerboard strip, and the outermost edge with a repeating Greek key motif in orange on a beige background. The hand-knotted construction and balanced symmetry reflect Anatolian and Caucasian tribal influences. The edges and corners are intact, and the rug is in excellent overall condition, with only minimal patina consistent with its age. The piece has been washed and is ready for use.
This rug speaks in the voice of 1960s Anatolia, where traditional craftsmanship met the emerging rhythm of modern pattern. The geometric medallions and ornamental borders evoke caravan journeys across wide steppes, with textiles serving as both
