About the Item
Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug
Size: 7'2" × 12'2" (218 × 370 cm)
A striking example of traditional Anatolian craftsmanship, this vintage Turkish Kilim from the 1940s radiates warmth, simplicity, and an authentic rural charm. Handwoven in flat-weave technique, the rug features a timeless striped design composed of alternating bands in soft ivory and earthy terracotta, occasionally highlighted by faint linear accents and subtle shifts in weave texture.
The naturally dyed wool used throughout the composition gives the rug a rich, organic character and a muted, aged patina that adds depth and visual softness. Each individual stripe displays slight irregularities and tonal variations, hallmark traits of hand-loomed village textiles. The narrow vertical seams where multiple woven panels have been joined are not only functional but add to the overall artisanal aesthetic, showcasing the rug’s hand-stitched authenticity.
Adding a gentle contrast, the two ends of the rug are adorned with minimal, yet vibrant, decorative bands in warm red and pink tones, subtly enriching the composition without disturbing its minimalist rhythm. These embroidered edges contribute a distinct regional flavor and highlight the balance between simplicity and ornamental detail typical of mid-20th century Turkish kilims.
This kilim is a versatile statement piece ideal for modern, bohemian, rustic, or Scandinavian-inspired interiors. Whether laid flat as a grounding textile or hung as a decorative tapestry, it brings an unmistakable sense of heritage and handcrafted beauty to any space.
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.
