Handwoven in wool originating from Turkey between 1950-1960, this vintage midcentury flat-weave rug represents one of the most visually unique lines to join Rug & Kilim’s collection, a distinct layering of 1950s flatweaves creating a look both conversational and versatile. The play of the midcentury Turkish tribal geometry against the more subdued striped flat-weave creates a dual sense of movement complementing the very conversational, artisan nature of such a collectible piece, further playing beautifully into the juxtaposition of rich hues against the placid blue background. The distressed, Shabby Elegance nature of the foreground has an arresting quality similar to the other discerning pieces in this quality, while also unique in that it departs from the other-centered pieces and offers its own individualistic, eccentric gravity in the pagination. This 5x9 rug offers versatility in both dimensions and colorway befitting a variety of interiors and projects seeking a very special negotiation between Classic and modern rugs.
