Some rugs glow. This is one of them that will catch-the-light.
This small vintage rug is a mid-century 20th Turkish and it has warmth, softness, and a kind of luminosity you can’t manufacture. The ground is a deep, burnished camel, like a particular honey-gold tone. Against it, an all-over flowering vine unfurls in a space blue outline, carrying scrolling leaves and open blooms in tawny gold, with accents of dusty mauve. The border frames everything in a space blue and floral art.
Up close, the pile has a silky sheen. It is low pile, with scattered wear, and will feel soft underfoot. The handle is floppy and yielding.
