About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variations, or distressed surface treatments. These pieces frequently reference the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition, where items were produced in small village workshops using regional motifs. Distressing in these rugs is often the result of decades of use paired with overdying, a process that leaves a subtle ghost-pattern visible beneath the saturated wash. The medallion style is characterised by a dominant central circular or diamond-shaped motif, which serves as the anchor for the rug's composition and is typically framed by a structurally distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction of this rug ensures it lies completely flat, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and dining rooms. Its thin profile is specifically designed to be layering-friendly over larger carpets and is fully compatible with underfloor heating systems.
