Paema - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'10 X 9'7

This hand-woven, one-of-a-kind piece celebrates Anatolian heritage through a flatwoven construction featuring a faded patina, abrash detail, and overdyed finish. With its 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, this rug is a testament to timeless textile history.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are defined by an aged aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash-like colour variation, or worn-look surface treatments that evoke mid-20th-century craftsmanship. Distressed finishes often result from an overdying process where the rug is submerged in a saturated colour bath, revealing a ghost-pattern of the original weave beneath. Medallion motifs, a hallmark of classical design, serve as the central anchor, while floral patterns incorporate botanical elements like vines and blossoms to reflect traditional regional variations.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie flat against the floor, making it highly suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, or dining rooms. Its thin profile is ideal for layering over larger carpets, while the robust material composition ensures compatibility with underfloor heating systems.
