Product code: Shops Handmade 19
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. The design is solely floral in nature reminscent of French carpets. The dyes used are not synthetic. It is a country shops rug not made in a city factory but likely made by one person on a home loom. It has a largeccentral blue field containing a spray of flowers. The colors are red, green, brown, pink, white and blue and are all somewhat muted. This rug is in good condition for its age, has no spots worn to the foundation and has no stains. This rug has approximately 120 knots per square inch making it a medium woven rug, a very pleasing design. 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 and underpaid, underage labor.
