Product code: Handmade figural Turkish or Caucasian shops rug 21
This is a mid-century Turkish rug. It is hand knotted with all wool fiber on a cotton warp and weft as are the majority of all oriental rugs. Many Afghan rugs are all wool and some Turkish and Iranian rugs have a silk base but comparatively few. The design is geometric in nature and the dyes used are not synthetic. It is a country rug not made in a city factory but likely made by one person on a home loom. It has a distinctive central geometric medallian. It is red with white, bright green and brown. It has a number of figural motifs, vase with flowers and a border of small shops birds. This rug is in very good condition for its age, has no spots worn to the foundation and has no stains. This rug has approximately 110 knots per square inch making it a medium woven rug. I have been selling on eBay for 24 years and have 100% feedback under the name Acanthus. Oriental rugs need not be so expensive but be aware of machine made rugs as well as factory made hand-tied rugs using petrochemicals.
