Soada - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'6 X 8'10

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 grey vintage rug offers a refined aesthetic.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variation, and worn-look surface treatments that reference mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving traditions. Distressed rugs utilise specific surface treatments to mimic age, including selectively faded zones or erased pile that reveals the base structure, often achieved through an overdyed finish that leaves ghost traces of the original pattern. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central motif—circular, diamond, or oval—while floral designs incorporate botanical motifs like vines and blossoms, both of which are hallmarks of historical Turkish carpet composition.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction makes this rug suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, living rooms, and dining spaces. Its profile is layering-friendly, allowing for placement over larger rugs, and it remains underfloor-heating safe due to its thin, durable composition.
