A Vintage Gördes Rug with Bold Medallion and Refined Color
Handwoven approximately 80 years ago in the Gördes region of Turkey, this vintage rug is a beautiful example of classic Turkish design paired with graceful, age-earned character. Crafted using vegetable-dyed wool on a cotton foundation, the rug has softened over time, developing a natural patina that enhances both its texture and visual depth.
Design & Color Story
At the center is a large, stylized medallion surrounded by delicate floral motifs—an iconic composition in Gördes weaving. The royal blue field provides a striking yet elegant backdrop, complemented by ivory and soft pink accents that add warmth and balance without overpowering the space.
Its proportions make it ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, offices, or seating areas where a strong but refined focal point is desired.
