The rug's striking presence is defined by its bold, symmetrical geometric medallion, set against a rich field of deep, inviting maroon and burgundy.

Hand-spun wool in natural hues of cream and vibrant gold/ochre meticulously defines the intricate patterns within the medallion and along the multi-layered borders, adding depth and visual intrigue. You'll also discover subtle pops of orange and earthy browns, adding to its authentic, organic palette.

Perfect for adding warmth and character to a living room, study, or sophisticated entryway, this Turkish gem will effortlessly anchor your space with its authentic charm and enduring beauty.

This beautiful rug clearly exhibits characteristics of traditional Turkish village (Köylü) weaving.
