Vintage Turkish Hand-Knotted Rug 6' 2" x 10' 11" (74" x 131")

Woven with wool on cotton foundation, this authentic vintage rug measures 6' 2" x 10' 11" (74" x 131"). For a contemporary look with a vintage appeal, we source hand-knotted area rugs woven in the second half of the 20th century that are in excellent condition and carefully trim the piles to achieve an eye-catching “distressed” look. Bridging generations of artisanal skill with a charming look, they complement any modern or bohemian décor.
All our vintage rugs are professionally cleaned before we add them to our inventory.

Design & Motifs

• All-over Lattice Pattern:
  The rug features a perfectly regular diagonal lattice design made up of small diamond-shaped compartments. This gives it a rhythmic, mosaic-like quality.

• Color Variations:
  Rows of diamonds alternate in warm reds, ochres, oranges, greens, soft blues, and browns. This subtle striping creates visual movement across the rug.

• Border:
  A narrow frame of linked vine-like motifs surrounds the field, adding just enough definition without distracting from the central lattice pattern.

• Symbolism:

  • Diamond forms (lozenges): Commonly interpreted as eyes or amulets against evil. In repetition, they provide a powerful protective field.

  • The rhythmic order may also symbolize unity, stability, and cosmic balance.
