About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variation, or worn-look surface treatments. Distressed rugs utilise a process where original pieces are submerged in a saturated single-colour bath, revealing ghost traces of the original pattern beneath the wash. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central circular or diamond-shaped motif, a hallmark of traditional Anatolian design, typically framed by a distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie flat against the floor, making it ideal for high-traffic areas like hallways, dining rooms, and kitchens. Its low-profile nature is compatible with underfloor heating and supports layering over larger area rugs.

Why Choose This Rug?

• — Engineered for versatility, the reversible weave and low-profile design make this piece suitable for high-traffic corridors and underfloor-heated environments.
