Gegata - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'9 X 9'11

Boasting low-pile, no-shed, high-traffic durable quality, it is layering-friendly, underfloor-heating safe, and offers a 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 defined by an aesthetic that evokes an antique or aged appearance, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variations, and distressed surface treatments. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central circular, oval, or diamond-shaped motif that anchors the composition, a hallmark of classical design. These pieces often reference mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving, where small village workshops utilised regional motifs to create items with a distinct historical character.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction ensures this rug lies flat, making it suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and entryways. Its profile is ideal for layering over larger carpets or placement over underfloor heating systems.

Why Choose This Rug?
