On the Design:

Connoisseurs will admire this personal vintage piece meant to catch the eye, yet still so atypical in its color and design choices that are so complementary to each other making it a comfortable, and inviting piece.

The rug features a subtle, all-over pattern of polychromatic geometric squares organized into a rhythmic, diagonal mosaic. The most distinguishing feature is the gradient color shift, transitioning through a sophisticated palette of muted red, brown, and charcoal tones to rich olive, sage green, and earthy ochre.

Accent colors of pale blue, dusty pink, and soft cream bring gentle life to the individual tiles, creating a pixelated "Gradiance" that feels remarkably modern for its mid-century provenance. To achieve such a submersive, complementary look in this unique way is an exemplary trait in this design—with limitless interior design applications today, from bohemian lofts to minimalist galleries.

Condition:

This vintage Turkish rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its pile height has been lowered, which creates the shabby-chic “distressed” look and feel of its texture. See less
