One of a kind. You receive the exact piece pictured.
A vintage 1980s Turkish Aksaray Sultanhanı rug, handmade with the traditional Gördes (Turkish) double knot, known for its strength and durability. Its deep crimson, navy blue and tribal geometric medallions represent some of the most iconic symbols of Central Anatolia.
The Sultanhanı tradition
Sultanhanı, a historic caravanserai town near Aksaray in Central Anatolia, is known for its kilim and rug weaving. Pieces from the region feature strong geometric medallions and classic Central Anatolian motifs.
Where it works
At 125 × 190 cm, this rug suits a bedroom, study, entryway or the space in front of a sofa. The blue and crimson palette works in both classic and eclectic interiors.
Care
Vacuum regularly without the beater bar, rotate every few months for even wear, and blot spills straight away with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning, we recommend a professional rug cleaner.
