Curator's Notes
- A variation of motifs—simple, tribal, bold, and colorful—all hailing from the Anatolian region (modern-day Turkey)
- A central medallion anchors the motif to a center focal point from which the design blooms out and is balanced by complementary design elements
- Floral motifs are a staple in rug design—showing up in a variety of styles including natural, abstract, and geometric
- The corners of the rug are heavily ornate
- Typically associated with the Yoruk nomads of Anatolia, these latch-hook ornaments are believed to protect against sources of danger—including ill will, wild animals, and natural disasters
- The central design is bookended by banner skirt panels
- An array of stripes in alternating colors—each stripe filled with stylized blossoms
Kula, in western Turkey, is known for its tribal and geometric rug designs.
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 soft—so it’s super comfy to walk and relax on.
