Featuring a striking saturated pink field—a rare find in village weavings of this era—the rug is anchored by bold, dark geometric medallions that define its tribal character. The foundation, a durable blend of organic wool and goat hair, provides a tactile and grounded quality that speaks to the nomadic traditions of the Güneydoğu region.

Ideally suited for high-traffic corridors, long entryways, or as a statement piece beside a kitchen island, this runner bridges the gap between traditional folk art and contemporary aesthetics. Its vibrant color palette and raw, authentic texture make it a versatile choice for Organic Modern, Boho-Chic, or Transitional interiors, offering a unique "yoluk" style that adds soul and history to any curated space.

◆ Color Palette & Design Insight:
A high-contrast and energetic palette that centers on a rare, vegetable-dyed pink field.
(Primary colors: Natural Pink, Chocolate Brown, Sandy Beige)
• The primary field is a saturated, natural pink that exhibits beautiful tonal variations (abrash).
• Deep chocolate brown medallions provide a strong, grounding geometric presence.
• Sandy beige and charcoal accents highlight the intricate tribal symbols.
• The goat hair foundation adds a darker, earthy undertone to the fringe and edges.

◆ Motifs & Symbolism:
The central diamonds are classic Anatolian tribal medallions, symbolizing family unity and the protection of the home. The hooked "ram's horn" motifs within the geometry represent power and fertility, a common theme in village weavings created as dowry or personal household items. The border patterns suggest running water, signifying life and growth, while the use of goat hair in the foundation reflects the weaver's direct connection to their livestock and nomadic environment.
