A Vintage Anatolian Runner with Bold Tribal Motifs and Lively Color
This vintage Anatolian runner is hand-knotted approximately 80 years ago using wool-on-wool and naturally dyed with vegetable pigments. Known for their durability and expressive patterns, Anatolian rugs offer a soft yet substantial feel underfoot while showcasing strong tribal design traditions.
Design & Color Story
The rug features an allover geometric composition punctuated by large tribal motifs that create rhythm and visual impact along its length. The palette of ivory, aquamarine, and pink-red feels vibrant yet balanced, adding personality without overwhelming the space. Its gently worn surface enhances the sense of authenticity, giving the runner a collected, timeless presence.
