Originating from Central Anatolia, Turkey, this carpet was woven mid 19th Century according to traditional designs and techniques passed from generation to generation of home-based village weavers for local domestic use or trade/sale to supplement the family income. Locally sourced sheep wool was hand-spun and then dyed with vegetable / organic dyes specific to the area. These rugs were woven according to traditional techniques and designs, being quite nicely patterned and softly colored and had quite thick, long pile/nap, with large central medallions on a plain base color encased by a series of border stripes featuring stylised floral or geometric motifs. Blue orrange, beige and brown color combinations.
