51412 Vintage Turkish Yastik Rug, 01'10 x 03'00.
This hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Yastik rug is a captivating blend of traditional design and rustic charm. Its central field is a rich, warm red, serving as the perfect backdrop for a beautifully detailed, elongated medallion with stepped edges. The medallion is intricately embellished with delicate floral elements, creating a harmonious balance of color and pattern. The stepped edges of the medallion, adorned with botanical forms, add a sense of depth and texture to the composition.
Surrounding the central field, vibrant corner spandrels are filled with stylized floral arrangements and geometric shapes, bringing an added layer of intrigue and sophistication to the rug's overall design. These corner details, along with the nuanced color shifts, create a dynamic interplay between the central motif and its surrounding elements. The rectangular endcaps, with its alternating panels of ambiguous pronged Anatolian symbols, run along either end elegantly, capturing the eye and drawing it inward toward the mesmerizing botanical border.
The vintage Turkish rug is framed with a leafy rosette border, enhancing the sense of movement and rhythm throughout the piece. The natural abrash, or color variation, found in the wool further authenticates the rug's vintage appeal, giving it a lived-in, cozy feel. This Yastik rug is not just a floor covering; it is a piece of history that brings warmth, character, and elegance to any space.
