This hand-knotted Konya rug features a bold central medallion anchored by striking tribal motifs, offering a timeless Anatolian aesthetic. Its low, shaved pile and sun-faded hues create a sophisticated "distressed" look that fits perfectly in both bohemian and minimalist interiors.

Woven in the Konya region of Central Anatolia around 1970, this piece represents a transition from traditional village craft to mid-century functional art. Konya is world-renowned for its high-quality wool and its history as a major weaving center since the Seljuk Empire. This specific mat showcases the resilient geometric patterns and warm earthy palettes characteristic of the Konya nomadic tradition.

■ Color Palette & Design Insight:
Muted Terracotta · Deep Indigo · Sandy Beige · Chocolate Brown
This palette is ideal for adding a grounded, earthy warmth to high-traffic areas like entryways or kitchen sinks. The weathered red tones pair beautifully with natural wood furniture and neutral stone tiling.

■ Motifs & Symbolism:
The central stepped diamond medallion represents the "Amulet" or "Muska," a protective symbol meant to ward off the evil eye. Flanking the center are geometric "Eagle" or bird-like motifs, traditionally symbolizing power, protection, and the flight of the soul. The smaller floral rosettes scattered throughout the field represent fertility and the beauty of the Anatolian landscape.

■ Care & Clean:
Vacuum gently without a beater bar, rotate for even wear, and use a rug pad; spot clean with mild soap and water when needed.

■ What Is a Turkish Rug?:
A Turkish rug is a hand-knotted masterpiece, crafted using the symmetrical 'Ghiordes' knot—a double-knot technique unique to the Anatolian weaving tradition. These authentic vintage textiles are made from 100% natural wool and organic vegetable dyes, ensuring durability and a rich, soulful character that machine-made rugs cannot replicate. Each rug tells a story through ancient geometric symbols and tribal motifs, bringing timeless heritage and artisanal warmth to modern interior designs.
