Trobida - Vintage Medallion Rug - 5'5 X 9'6

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 profile, this layering-friendly, underfloor-heating safe, reversible weave offers a soft-touch, distressed character with ghost-pattern motifs, 70s craftsmanship, cotton-polyester blend, single-piece artisanal quality, and sun-bleached tones.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash-like colour variation, or worn-look surface treatments. These pieces reference the mid-20th-century Anatolian hand-weaving tradition, where items were produced in small village workshops using regional motifs. Distressing in these rugs often results from decades of use combined with overdyeing, a process where the original rug is submerged in a single-colour bath, leaving ghost traces of the original pattern visible. The medallion, a hallmark of classical design, is typically rendered here in a geometric or stylised form, anchoring the composition within a distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction of this rug makes it ideal for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens. Its thin profile is well-suited for underfloor heating and allows for easy layering over larger carpets.
