Stopava - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'7 X 8'6

This orange hand-woven, one-of-a-kind piece preserves Anatolian heritage through a flatwoven construction featuring a faded patina, abrash detail, and overdyed finish. It offers a low-pile, no-shed, high-traffic durable surface that is layering-friendly and underfloor-heating safe, showcasing a reversible weave, soft-touch distressed character, ghost-pattern, 70s craftsmanship, cotton-polyester blend, single-piece artisanal quality, and sun-bleached tones.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an aged aesthetic, often featuring faded tones and abrash-like colour variation. These pieces typically reference the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition, where items were produced in small village workshops using regional motifs. Distressing, often achieved through overdying, results in a ghost-pattern where the original design remains visible beneath a saturated colour wash. Medallion rugs are defined by a dominant central circular or diamond-shaped motif, a hallmark of classical Anatolian composition, typically framed by a structurally distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie flat against the floor, making it highly functional for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens. Its profile is suitable for use over underfloor heating and enables easy layering over larger carpets.
