About the Item

53723 Vintage Earth-Tone Turkish Kars Rug, 05'06 x 11'06. A true masterpiece of understated luxury, this hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Kars rug offers a rare and refined interpretation of Midcentury elegance intertwined with tribal enchantment. Woven in the secluded highlands of northeastern Turkey, this bespoke creation reflects centuries of artisanship, where every loop and knot was laid with meticulous attention to detail. Its warm, earthen palette—rich in shades of clay, sand, and sun-aged wheat—serves as a canvas of expression, quietly asserting both cultural heritage and artistic innovation. At its core lies a timeless garden trellis pattern, gracefully unfurling like a vine across the loomed surface. Interlocking lozenges are formed by slender, meandering vines, each junction crowned with stylized rosettes—a symbolic tribute to growth, femininity, and continuity. This floral lattice conveys a sense of purity and poise, while the abrash—those organic shifts in tone—adds a layer of authenticity, echoing the touch of time and the soulful imperfection celebrated in Wabi-Sabi philosophy. It is a composition that feels both modern and relaxed, yet steeped in meaning. Framing the central field, a signature border of tribal emblems and geometric figures creates a rhythmic edge, a captivating echo of Anatolian storytelling. Enclosed by inner and outer crenelated guard bands, the rug exudes structured serenity and balance. These elements are not only decorative—they are expressions of protection, legacy, and belonging. With every symbol woven into its edge, this piece becomes a precious link in a chain of tradition, each detail a reflection of diverse beauty and creative power. Offered as a one-of-a-kind vintage treasure, this Turkish Kars rug is an object of exclusivity—a collector’s dream that champions eco-design, cultural preservation, and refined aesthetics. It offers not just a visual experience but a sense of connection to a region, a people, and a philosophy. Ideal for elite interiors that seek timeless pieces with symbolic value, it speaks to those who desire more than luxury: they seek a story, a soul, and a legacy to live with. This is not just a rug—it is a cherished work of art, where heritage and inventiveness meet. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Turkey (Kars Region). Measures: 05'06 x 11'06.
