About the Item
Antique Turkish Sivas Rug
Size: 11'5" × 18'3" (347 × 556 cm)
This exquisite Turkish Sivas rug, dating from the early 20th century, measures approximately 18 feet by 12 feet, showcasing the traditional artistry and craftsmanship synonymous with this Anatolian weaving tradition. Woven with a meticulous hand, this rug embodies the cultural heritage and aesthetic sensibility of the Sivas region.
The rug features an intricate floral and vine motif that gracefully intertwines across the field. Central to the design are large palmettes and blooming flowers, complemented by curling tendrils and smaller blossoms that create a harmonious, balanced pattern. The design is characterized by its fluidity and delicate detailing, typical of Sivas rugs, which reflects the influence of Persian design merged with Turkish interpretation.
The border showcases a series of stylized floral and geometric motifs framed by guard stripes, adding structure and depth to the overall composition. The border's rich detail enhances the visual impact of the rug while containing the ornate field pattern.
This Sivas rug is distinguished by its warm, earthy palette dominated by soft reds, muted rose, faded coral, and beige tones. Accents of dusty blues, soft grays, and golden yellows punctuate the design, adding dimension and subtle contrast. The natural dyes have aged beautifully, lending the rug a warm patina and a sense of timeless elegance.
Hand-knotted from high-quality wool, the pile exhibits a soft, supple texture indicative of skilled craftsmanship. The foundation, also wool, provides durability and strength.
Sivas rugs are renowned for their distinct style within the broader Turkish carpet tradition, reflecting a blend of regional influences and the artistic legacy of Anatolian weavers. This example from circa 1900 exemplifies the refined elegance and historical significance of Sivas rugs, making it a prized addition for collectors and connoisseurs of antique textiles.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
