Kahuma - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'7 X 9'4

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

About This Style

Vintage rugs are defined by an aesthetic that evokes the passage of time, often incorporating faded tones, abrash-like colour variations, and distressed surface treatments. These pieces frequently reference the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition, where motifs were produced in small village workshops. The medallion style acts as a dominant, anchoring central composition—often geometric or stylised—that is framed by a distinct structural border, a hallmark of classical rug design.

Where It Works

The flatweave construction allows this rug to lie flat, making it suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens. Its thin profile is ideal for layering over larger carpets and ensures compatibility with underfloor heating systems.
