A variation of motifs—simple, tribal, bold, and colorful—all hailing from the Anatolian region (modern-day Turkey)
Deeply meaningful symbols to the women weavers of this culture, these interconnected medallions represent pregnancy and motherhood
Crosses are a fundamental element of rug design (occasionally alluding to faith)
A geometric, step-like pattern which expresses the primitive, artisanal qualities of weaving from nomadic cultures
An absolute classic, diamond-based designs create a beautiful and dynamic field of geometric shapes
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

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.
