About the Item

This Mamluk Rug with Cusped Medallion embodies a contemporary revival of a classic design, meticulously handwoven in Eastern Turkey by skilled artisans of Ararat Rugs. The design features a striking medallion encased in geometric forms, resonating with the historical depth of Mamluk aesthetics. The use of natural dyes enriches the palette, enhancing the visual allure while paying homage to traditional carpet crafting methods. This rug is not just a floor covering but a piece of art, infusing your space with a narrative of cultural heritage and artistic dedication. Design and Symbolism: Mamlouk (Mamluk) rugs are renowned for their intricate geometric designs, often featuring central medallions surrounded by a kaleidoscopic array of motifs. This particular rug exemplifies such artistry, with its complex patterns and vibrant colors creating a mesmerizing visual effect. The use of natural dyes and hand-spun wool not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also ensures its durability and authenticity. Historical Context: Originating in 15th-century Egypt under the Mamluk Sultanate, these carpets were highly valued for their unique designs and superior craftsmanship. They played a significant role in the Mediterranean trade and were often used to adorn the floors of mosques and palaces. The distinctive aesthetic of Mamluk carpets, characterized by their geometric motifs and vibrant colors, continues to captivate collectors and art enthusiasts today. This rug boasts a harmonious blend of 5 natural colors, each derived from traditional dyeing methods: Natural Wool Color 320: Specially Washed , Sunray Color 405: Henna , Chinese Red 548: Madder Root , Emerald Green 407: Chamomile - Indigo , Cadet Blue 26: Spurge - Indigo Material of Pile: Wool Pile On Wool Weft and Wrap Structure: Symmetrical knot on depressed warp inclining to the right Knots Density: 39x39 Pile (mm): 3 Production Place: Adiyaman Province, Anatolia Dimensions: 4 ft 5 in x 5 ft 6 in ( 136cm x 169cm )
