Beautiful Antique Colorful Turkish Kilim Allover Pattern Rug, Country of Origin: Turkey, Circa Date: 1900
Beautiful and colorful, this Turkish Kilim rug features a bold flatwoven composition filled with repeating diamond forms, serrated medallions and vertical rows of smaller geometric motifs. The palette is especially lively, combining red, orange, blue, yellow, brown, olive and ivory tones in a way that gives the rug strong movement and decorative energy.
The allover layout creates a rhythmic surface, with each row of motifs playing against the striped color bands and patterned outer border. Collectors drawn to this type of Turkish weaving may also want to compare related tribal rugs and other antique geometric rugs with bold color and graphic structure.
The wide border frames the central field using angular, hook-like forms with alternating colors. It acts as a visual contrast to the rug’s central field. For more context on how palette and pattern affect the feeling of a room, explore our guides to rug colors and rug patterns and carpet designs.
