On the Design:

A rich burgundy red field underscores the ten eight-pointed medallions, fabulously executed for the look of graphic, bold presence and old-world charm that made this tribal motif so celebrated among our peers. Keen eyes for detail will further note the many other intricate tribal motifs, along with floral vines in the borders and the more small-scale pieces in the field alike, which all lend a fabulous look of dimensionality and the personal, intimate detail inherent to nomadic weaving traditions. It’s a gorgeous shabby-chic piece, teeming with the rustic, traditional beauty and cultured air that sits beautifully in so many spaces.

Condition:

This vintage Turkish rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. See less
