New Over-dyed Hand-Knotted Turkish Rug 10' 3" x 14' 10" (123" x 178") - K0063123

For a contemporary look with abstract appeal, this over-dyed area rug is skillfully crafted by the revitalization of a genuine new hand-knotted Turkish rug woven in the 60s or 70s. Woven with wool on wool foundation, this "distressed" rug measures 10' 3" x 14' 10" (123" x 178"). The process in creating these works of art begins by shearing to lower the pile and to help "distress" them. They then undergo a series of processes to remove the color. They are then dyed in one color, a stage that can be repeated several times to reach the desired saturation level and hues. This magnificent transformation can be considered a piece of contemporary art, with a unique look that complements any modern décor.
