Curator's Notes
Motifs
Lined with geometrically stylized Anatolian medallions
Artisanal and tribal, geometric designs feature angular edges and simple shapes—like diamonds, squares, lattices, and stylized animals
The corners of the rug are heavily ornate
Triangular amulet design—believed to protect against evil spirits and bad luck
A geometric, step-like pattern which expresses the primitive, artisanal qualities of weaving from nomadic cultures
Rectangular shapes mimic castle battlements—symbolizing protection and security
A larger border is flanked by two smaller borders
Region of Origin
Kars, found in the easternmost part of Turkey (near the Caucasus border), is known for its rugs woven with modified Caucasian designs. Almost always constructed with an all-wool foundation, these rugs are coarsely woven in either earth-toned natural wool colors (like cream, gray, and brown) or pastel pinks and blues.
Material Details
Wool 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.
