This hand-woven, one-of-a-kind Anatolian heritage piece 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 captures a 50-70 year old aesthetic.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic through surface treatments that mimic age, such as abrash colour variation and selectively faded zones. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central motif—often geometric in Turkish traditions—framed by a distinct border, while floral compositions incorporate botanical forms like vines and blossoms. Distressing, often achieved via overdyeing, reveals ghost traces of the original pattern beneath a saturated colour wash to create a storied, lived-in appearance.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction ensures this rug lies flush against the floor, making it highly suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens, and dining rooms. Its thin profile is ideal for layering over larger carpets and is fully compatible with underfloor heating systems.
