A softly colored Brown and Red Handmade Rug originating from Central Anatolia,Turkey and measuring 5 ft 4 in x 3 ft 7 in ( 162 cm x 109 cm) this carpet was woven mid-20th Century according to traditional designs and techniques passed from generation to generation of home-based village weavers. Locally sourced sheep wool was hand-spun and then dyed with vegetable / organic dyes specific to the area. These rugs were traditionally quite bold and strongly colored and had quite thick, long pile/nap. However, such strongly colored and heavily piled rugs are not as compatible with contemporary home decor as they were with life in the Village in Turkey, so the colors in this rug have been softened and faded in natural sun light and the pile reduced / shaved to produce the “Vintage Distressed” look so in keeping with modern home decoration trends. These rugs combine a Contemporary Color Palette with Vintage Design appeal and the Reduced Pile allows for flexibility of placement under furniture and ease of cleaning.
