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
- A geometric, step-like pattern which expresses the primitive, artisanal qualities of weaving from nomadic cultures
- Boteh flames (or sprouting seeds) stand for growth and regeneration—they’re known as the “Seed of Life” in Anatolia and the inspiration for India’s traditional paisley patterns
- The central design is bookended by banner skirt panels
- Floral motifs are a staple in rug design—showing up in a variety of styles including natural, abstract, and geometric
Kirsehir, found in central Turkey, is known for its vibrant rugs with high-quality wool and intricate geometric 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.
