About the Item

72090 Vintage Floral Turkish Kilim Rug, 06’09 x 09’06. Turkish Kilim rugs with Bessarabian Rose designs are a distinct style of Kilim rugs crafted in Turkey, featuring floral motifs inspired by the historical Bessarabian rose designs originating from regions like Moldova, Ukraine, and Romania. These rugs exhibit intricate floral patterns, including stylized roses, arranged in geometric or symmetrical layouts, known for their elegance, intricacy, and vibrant colors. By integrating Bessarabian rose designs into traditional Kilim weaving techniques, Turkish weavers create a unique fusion of cultural influences, showcasing Turkish craftsmanship while honoring the rich floral traditions of Bessarabia. Highly prized for their beauty, craftsmanship, and cultural significance, these rugs can elevate interior decor as focal points, reflecting the heritage of both Turkish and Bessarabian weaving traditions. Embrace the timeless elegance of a rose garden in perpetual bloom with this exquisite handwoven wool vintage Turkish rose kilim rug. Against a rich red backdrop, the stage is set for a captivating array of stylized roses and delicate leaflets, artfully arranged in three vertical columns cascading from top to bottom, evoking the essence of a flourishing garden. The bold presence of the stylized roses commands attention, infusing the space with unparalleled drama, while the lively earth-tone color palette, inspired by the natural world, ensures its versatility in various decor schemes. Adding to its allure, a rustic strip of rose-colored abrash at one end authentically accents this Turkish flatweave, infusing it with character and charm. Enhancing its cultural significance and protective symbolism, the Turkish kilim area rug is framed with a border adorned with Burdock motifs, believed to possess the power to ward off the malevolent gaze of the evil eye. This intricate detailing not only adds depth to the design but also imbues the rug with an additional layer of meaning, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and superstitions intertwined with Turkish weaving traditions. Each element of this handcrafted masterpiece speaks to the artistry and craftsmanship of Turkish rug making, combining traditional techniques with symbolic motifs to create a captivating focal point that transcends mere decoration, inviting admiration and appreciation for its beauty and cultural significance in any space.

The Chintz Blossom Royale: A Vintage Turkish Rose Kilim of Exquisite Grandeur
Located in Dallas, TX
70271 Vintage Turkish Rose Kilim Rug, 09'00 x 10'11. There is a certain joy—an unapologetically sumptuous, romantic joy—that only a true rose kilim can deliver, and this exceptional vintage Turkish flat-weave captures that feeling with disarming elegance. Inspired by the whimsical exuberance of Mario Buatta and the polished charm of classic Chintz interiors, this piece transforms a room into a curated tableau of floral opulence. Its open abrashed red field provides a velvety stage for a sweeping display of roses, rendered with a painterly softness that evokes both nostalgia and couture-level restraint. At the heart of the composition lies a magnificent stylized bouquet, framed by a dramatically cusped medallion that feels almost baroque in its flourish. The artistry here is unmistakable—this is not simply a decorative element, but a celebration of abundance, femininity, and heritage. The roses bloom in shades of cream, teal, emerald, and blush, creating an irresistible, layered depth that feels transported from a lacquered English drawing room or the salon of an old-world grand estate. Around this lyrical center, a deep black-coffee border intensifies the contrast and adds an air of high drama. The surrounding garlands of roses and foliage echo the central bouquet, unifying the entire composition with a rhythm that is both stately and playful. The interplay of soft pastels against the dark frame creates a chiaroscuro effect, lending the kilim a curated, museum-worthy presence—a rarity among floral flat-weaves. For collectors and designers with a taste for the extraordinary, this exquisite work of art is more than a textile—it is a statement piece with personality, pedigree, and undeniable magnetism. It evokes the lavish romance of vintage chintz while retaining the crisp geometry and artisanal integrity of Anatolian weaving. This is a treasure for a space that demands charm, sophistication, and a whisper of theatrical luxury. Also known as: Bessarabian Rose...
