Woven in the Oushak region of Western Anatolia in the 1960s, this slender village runner combines a finely woven flatweave ground with joyful braided cicim embroidery scattered from end to end. The pale, stone-ivory base keeps the piece light and airy, while the tiny, colorful motifs read almost like confetti across the floor, making it ideal for brightening a gallery-like corridor, kitchen galley, or long entryway.
The design has a gentle rhythm of repeating rows, with a more expressive border band at one end that subtly anchors the composition without feeling heavy. As a genuinely used vintage rug, it carries the soft handle and mild irregularities that collectors value: it has been professionally cleaned, remains odorless, shows no repairs, and, in true handwoven fashion, is not perfectly rectangular. Its playful color story and slim proportions make it an easy, uplifting layer alongside modern cabinetry, dark floors, or neutral minimalist interiors.

✨ Color Palette & Design Insight
This runner brings a luminous, easygoing palette to any space, with a soft neutral ground that lets the embroidery shimmer rather than shout. It pairs beautifully with white or wood cabinetry, dark stone floors, and layered boho or contemporary-farmhouse interiors where a light, playful accent is needed.
• Soft stone, ivory, and pale sand tones striping the ground in gentle, almost plaid-like panels
• Apricot, tangerine, and warm coral motifs adding cheerful warmth along the length of the rug
• Blush pink, fuchsia, and dusty rose details giving a playful, modern pop of color
• Golden saffron, mustard, and olive notes bringing cozy depth and a hint of vintage character
• Denim blue, teal, charcoal, and inky navy accents providing small anchors of contrast
• Fine pink edging and a leaf-like border in pink, gold, and deep teal that frames one end of the runner
✨ Motifs & Symbolism
The surface is filled with tiny village symbols: hooked diamonds, starburst “snowflakes,” floral rosettes, and small S-shaped charms, all worked in raised cicim embroidery so they sit lightly above the flat ground. In Anatolian weaving, these forms are often associated with wishes for protection, good fortune, and a joyful, abundant household. The orderly rows create an almost textile-like grid across the runner, while the denser border band at one end suggests a threshold or gateway, reinforcing its natural role as a hallway, kitchen, or stair runner guiding movement through the home.
