Clota - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'1 X 9'1

This beige and brown hand-woven, one-of-a-kind piece embodies Anatolian heritage through its flatwoven construction, faded patina, abrash detail, overdyed finish, low-pile, no-shed, high-traffic durable, layering-friendly, underfloor-heating safe, reversible weave, soft-touch, distressed character, ghost-pattern, 70s craftsmanship, cotton-polyester blend, single-piece artisanal, and sun-bleached tones.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often referencing mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving traditions. Distressed surface treatments, such as abrash colour variation and selectively faded zones, are achieved through intentional ageing or overdying, where a base rug is submerged in a saturated bath to reveal ghost-patterns of the original design. Medallion motifs serve as the central geometric anchor, while floral elements draw from botanical Ottoman-era vocabulary.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction ensures this rug lies flat against the floor, making it highly functional for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and living rooms. Its profile is compatible with underfloor heating systems and is ideal for layering over larger carpets.

Why Choose This Rug?

• — Features a central medallion motif complemented by intricate floral patterns and an authentic distressed appearance.
• — Constructed from a cotton and polyester blend; cotton provides breathability, while polyester adds durability and moisture resistance.
• — The flatwoven, no-pile design ensures ease of maintenance and prevents shedding in busy household environments.
• — These rugs reference the Anatolian hand-weaving tradition; each piece is one-of-a-kind, with minor variations in colour and pattern that are characteristic of vintage-style production.
• — Durable enough for high-traffic zones and versatile enough for layering or installation over underfloor heating.
