About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool in Turkey, this 5x14 antique Ghiordes runner rug is a rare and exciting new addition to Rug Kilim’s curations of this celebrated weaving tradition of Ottoman-inspired designs. On the Design: The design of this classic Ghiordes rug employs diamond medallions that showcase extraordinary internal complexity through their stepped perimeters and cruciform centers, creating crystalline brilliance that guides focus. The field demonstrates sophisticated understanding of negative space where ivory areas provide contemplative breathing room between geometric elements. The border exemplifies classical Ottoman design philosophy through reciprocal geometric patterning rendered in burgundy and ivory alternation. Multiple guard borders provide visual hierarchy while the primary border's flowing geometric meanders create continuous movement that frames the prayer field without competing for attention. The piece excels in private study environments where its geometric meditation fosters intellectual reflection while the refined burgundy palette harmonizes with scholarly furnishings and rare book collections. In contemporary applications, this rug provides museum-quality authenticity that resonates with collectors who appreciate Ottoman decorative traditions and their sophisticated synthesis of spiritual and aesthetic values. Admirers of the craft may further note a subtle inspiration from Saf rugs in this runner’s particular sense of geometry—a resemblance to the multi-arch style of Saf runners seldom seen in such beautifully saturated, maximized colors like this piece enjoys. Condition: This antique Ghiordes runner rug further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
