Mevesa - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'4 X 8'11

This hand-woven, one-of-a-kind Anatolian heritage rug features a flatwoven construction, faded patina, and abrash detail. With an 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, it offers a sophisticated vintage aesthetic.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic through faded tones, abrash colour variations, and worn-look surface treatments. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central motif, often geometric or stylised, framed by a distinct border, while floral rugs incorporate botanical motifs ranging from scrolled vines to rose-bouquet repeats. Distressing, often achieved through overdyeing, reveals ghost-pattern traces of the original design, reflecting the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie perfectly flush against the floor, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens. Its low-profile design is suitable for placement over underfloor heating and functions effectively as a layering piece on top of larger rugs.
