Kikeis - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'11 X 9'3

This red, 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 featuring faded tones, abrash colour variation, and worn-look surface treatments. Distressed vintage pieces result from decades of use combined with overdyeing, a process where a rug is submerged in a saturated colour bath to reveal ghost-pattern traces beneath the wash. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central circular or geometric motif, a hallmark of classical Anatolian design, typically framed by a structurally distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction makes this rug suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and entryways. It is designed to lie flat against the floor, making it ideal for layering over larger rugs or placing in spaces with underfloor heating.

Why Choose This Rug?

• — Features a prominent central medallion motif rendered in a rich red palette, showcasing 70s craftsmanship through a distressed, ghost-pattern aesthetic.
• — Constructed from a cotton and polyester blend; the cotton offers natural breathability, while the polyester provides moisture resistance and increased durability for everyday use.
• — The flatweave, no-pile construction ensures the rug lies perfectly flat, preventing tripping hazards and allowing for seamless placement in high-traffic zones.
• — 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.
• — Designed to be layering-friendly and underfloor-heating safe, this low-pile, no-shed rug maintains its structural integrity in busy domestic environments.
