- A variation of motifs—simple, tribal, bold, and colorful—all hailing from the Anatolian region (modern-day Turkey)
- Lined with a repeating set of three medallions to create multiple points of visual interest and direction
- 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
- A larger border is flanked by two smaller borders
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.
