An elegant antique Turkish rug from the Sivas region, dating to the early 20th century, with an intricate allover design of geometric diamond patterns and stylized floral motifs. Professionally antique washed, it features a beautifully softened palette of ivory, beige, and brown, highlighting the refined geometry and understated decorative character of the design.
Design & Color Story
An intricate allover pattern creates a captivating interplay of geometric structure and stylized botanical elements. Repeating diamond forms establish a sense of rhythm across the field, while delicate floral motifs introduce a softer decorative quality. The result is a balanced and sophisticated composition that feels both traditional and distinctly modern in spirit.
The muted palette of ivory, beige, and brown enhances the rug’s understated elegance. Its professional antique wash has softened the original colors and contrasts, giving the surface a faded, timeworn appearance while allowing the intricate pattern to remain beautifully legible.
With its disciplined geometry and stylized ornament, the design evokes the refined aesthetic of the early 20th century, with Art Deco influences that make it particularly appealing for interiors blending antique character with contemporary design.
Craftsmanship
Hand-knotted in wool, this antique Turkish rug reflects the decorative traditions associated with the Sivas region. Its intricate allover composition, geometric repetition, and stylized floral details distinguish it from more conventional medallion designs.
