and-knotted tribal rug with a bold stepped-medallion design in madder red, saffron and charcoal, framed by a floral/rosette border. The pile is soft, dense wool on a tightly woven foundation; colours are beautifully saturated with the gentle, natural abrash you want from an older piece. Fringed ends and neatly bound selvedges.
Measured at 141 x 104cm (about 4ft 7½in x 3ft 5in), so it’s a brilliant size for layering under a side table, in an entrance, or to warm up a reading corner. Lays flat and presents well.
Vintage condition with age-commensurate wear: minor scuffs, light fray to the fringe and a few small marks here and there, nothing that detracts. Clean and ready to use.
hand-knotted wool from central/eastern Anatolia (Turkey), mid-20th century. Classic stepped medallions in madder red, saffron yellow and charcoal with a flower-motif border; good pile and handle.
