About the Item
Large Antique Turkish Sivas Rug
Size: 14'0" × 19'4" (426 × 589 cm)
This exquisite Antique Turkish Sivas rug from the early 20th century exemplifies the sophisticated artistry and refined elegance characteristic of high-quality Sivas weaving. Handwoven circa 1900, the rug boasts a grand scale and a harmonious palette, making it a rare and distinguished piece suitable for a formal interior or a curated antique collection.
The field of the rug is richly decorated with a delicate allover botanical pattern that evokes a garden-like atmosphere. Intricate floral sprays, palmettes, and scrolling vines unfurl across the surface in a symmetrical layout, rendered with exceptional precision and fluidity. These motifs reflect a classical Persian influence often found in high-grade Sivas rugs, interpreted here through a distinctly Turkish lens.
The central medallion and corner spandrels are subtly integrated into the overall design, lending the composition a sense of continuity and grace rather than dominance. Unlike more rigid layouts, this approach enhances the rug’s decorative versatility.
The color scheme features soft, warm hues: faded terracotta, muted rose, golden camel, and gentle olive greens all blend into a mellow, aged patina. The palette has mellowed beautifully over time, contributing to the rug’s antique charm and adding a serene, timeless elegance to any setting.
The multi-layered borders are meticulously composed, with the main border showcasing an ornate scrolling vine and rosette motif, flanked by complementary guard borders. These layers frame the field masterfully, providing both definition and balance without overpowering the central design.
This rug was hand-knotted using high-quality wool, known for its fine texture and durability. The weave is tight and consistent, indicative of the skillful craftsmanship practiced in Sivas at the turn of the century. The rug’s condition and structural integrity are remarkably well-preserved, enhancing its value as both a collectible and functional piece.
This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
