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 rugs undergo a process where the original piece is submerged in an overdyed bath, leaving a ghost-pattern of the original motif visible beneath the surface. Medallion rugs are defined by a central circular or diamond-shaped motif, a hallmark of classical Anatolian design that anchors the composition within a distinct frame.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction of this rug makes it suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and living rooms. It is compatible with underfloor heating systems and is ideal for layering over larger carpets or hard flooring due to its low-profile design.

Why Choose This Rug?
