Sitean - Vintage Medallion Rug - 6'0 X 9'8

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 surface, layering-friendly profile, underfloor-heating safe build, reversible weave, soft-touch, distressed character, ghost-pattern, 70s craftsmanship, cotton-polyester blend, single-piece artisanal quality, and sun-bleached tones, it captures a 50-70 year old aesthetic.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are defined by an aged aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variation, and distressed surface treatments. These pieces draw upon the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition, where small village workshops utilised regional motifs and natural dyes. Distressing techniques, including overdyeing, reveal a ghost-pattern beneath the surface, while medallion and floral compositions serve as hallmarks of classical Turkish design.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie perfectly flat, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and living rooms. Its profile is compatible with underfloor heating systems and serves as a base for layering over larger rugs.
