ABOUT PRODUCTID 43017
This handwoven Kayseri runner from the 1950s exemplifies the precision of Anatolian craftsmanship. Made from wool, it features the region's characteristically dense weave and low pile. The şaf composition—an architectural, multi-niche design inspired by mihrabs—divides the surface into nine panels, each presenting a unique motif of the tree of life, vases, or stylized columns. The color palette is built on muted beige, complemented by sage green, faded sky blue, and terracotta orange. Narrow indigo borders define the rhythm of the piece, while the ends are finished with decorative architectural bands. Despite significant wear, abrasions, and exposed foundation, the rug remains structurally stable and is well-suited for long corridors or transitional spaces. The surface is matte, showing pronounced signs of age—condition: worn, with authentic traces of use typical of mid-century vintage pieces.This runner tells the story of Anatolian workshops in the mid-20th century, where tradition met everyday life. Each geometric niche, every mihrab motif, seems to whisper of prayers, domestic rituals, and regional customs. The faded colors and worn fibers read like a chronicle of passing decades:
