Origin Turkish

This 7x10 rug started as a hand-knotted Turkish carpet, woven between 30 and 70 years ago, and was overdyed grey later in its life. The design is floral: leafy sprays run up the center of the field inside a frame of scrolling vines, and large open flowers sit in the border and at each corner. Pile was then carved away from the ground around those motifs, so the flowers and vines stand dark and raised while the ground between them is shaved low enough to show the weave underneath.

Room Fit

The rug measures 6'8" x 10'6" (204 x 320 cm).

Living room: along the long side it takes a sofa up to about 10 feet wide with the front legs on the rug. If you want all four legs on, plus a side table at each end, keep the sofa to about 6'10".

Bedroom: laid crosswise under the lower part of the bed, about 33 inches of rug shows on each side of a standard queen mattress (60 inches wide), or 25 inches on each side of a king (76 inches). A wider bed frame leaves less rug showing.

It is too narrow for a dining table. Chairs need about 24 inches of rug beyond each table edge to stay on the rug when pulled out, which leaves room for a table only 32 inches wide, narrower than a standard dining table.

Origin & Craftsmanship

Handmade in Turkey. The base carpet is hand-knotted with the Turkish double knot, wool pile on a cotton warp and weft.

Two steps were applied in order: the rug was overdyed first, and the carving came afterward. Carving takes pile off the ground while the motifs keep their original height, which is what gives the surface its two levels. Because the dye went on over the rug's existing colors rather than replacing them, the grey reads unevenly across the field, lighter where the pile is lower.

Total thickness is 7 mm (0.28"). The rug weighs about 42 lb (19 kg). It is finished with a bound edge the whole way around and has no fringe.

Care & Cleaning

Blot a spill as soon as it happens with a clean, dry white cloth, pressing straight down rather than rubbing. Leave cleaning itself to a professional rug cleaner who works with handmade wool rugs. Our Rug Care Guide covers the rest.
