This vintage Turkish rug from around 1950 showcases a large central medallion with intricate floral details and arabesques in coral and green, set against a warm brown field. The design includes open corner spandrels with delicate scrolling vines and small floral sprays that create a spacious, country French-inspired composition. Wide multiple borders feature repeating stylized flowers, geometric hooks, and narrow guard bands in contrasting ivory and rust, giving the rug a soft, elegant appearance with gentle natural fading.
Turkish rugs from the mid-20th century often blend traditional motifs with lighter, more open layouts and primary natural dyes for a relaxed, vintage feel. This example uses wool pile on cotton foundation for a plush texture and good durability, with the French-country floral style adding a romantic touch to classic weaving. Its large size and well-preserved condition make it a versatile, standout piece.
Perfect for living rooms, dining areas, or family spaces where it can anchor large furniture groupings. The warm brown field with coral and green accents brings cozy sophistication, pairing beautifully with wood floors and both traditional and eclectic decor. Its wool pile offers softness underfoot and lasting quality for regular use.
