Size: 14 X 10.3 ft. Origin: Turkey Circa: 1990s Material: Handspun Wool & Natural Dyes This exquisite vintage Turkish Samsun rug is a splendid example of classical Anatolian floral design, blending elegance and symmetry. The rug features a warm, muted palette of soft terracotta, pale peach, sandy beige, and hints of ivory, giving it a sophisticated, aged patina that softly glows. At the heart of the rug lies a richly detailed floral field with a mirrored, symmetrical layout: large palmettes, rosettes, stylised leaves, and delicate vines intertwine gracefully, creating a flowing garden-like scene. The motifs are drawn with a fine sense of balance; large blossoms anchor the design while smaller floral sprays and curling tendrils fill the negative space, providing both density and airiness. Surrounding the central field is a wide border adorned with repeating floral rosettes and vine scrolls. These are framed by narrower guard borders with tiny floral and geometric accents, giving the piece strong visual framing without overwhelming the central design. Samsun rugs, renowned for their refined craftsmanship, often draw inspiration from Ottoman and Anatolian weaving traditions, blending Persian-inspired floral motifs with the softness and warmth of Turkish design. This piece would have been hand-knotted with high-quality wool, offering durability and a luxurious feel underfoot. Discover the craftsmanship of our authentic vintage and antique rugs.
