Curator's Notes
- Lined with a repeating set of five medallions to create multiple points of visual interest and direction
- A variation of motifs—simple, tribal, bold, and colorful—all hailing from the Anatolian region (modern-day Turkey)
- Artisanal and tribal, geometric designs feature angular edges and primitive shapes—like diamonds, squares, lattices, and stylized animals
- A symmetrical overhead view of a floral rosette
- A bold set of ram’s horns represents strength and bravery
- Directional design or color gradients with purposeful asymmetry and movement
- Abrash adds visual depth and texture in its variation in color and tone
Sille, a village in central Turkey near Konya, is known for its wide runners that feature Anatolian patterns with repeating geometric medallions—commonly woven with distinctive red or coral warps and wefts.
Material DetailsWool is the most widely used fiber in Turkish rug design. Not only is it plentiful in supply, it’s durable, long-lasting, and incredibly plush—so it’s super comfy to walk and relax on.
