This antique Turkish Sivas rug is a refined example of classical Anatolian floral design, woven around the turn of the 20th century. The composition centers on a large floral medallion set within an expansive beige field, surrounded by intricate scrolling vines, blossoms, and layered borders.
The dominant beige background gives the rug an elegant, airy presence, while subtle accents of soft coral, muted blue, and ivory add depth without overpowering the design. The balanced symmetry and fine detailing reflect the sophisticated aesthetic associated with Sivas rugs, which were often influenced by palace-style weaving traditions.
Hand-knotted using high-quality wool on a cotton foundation, this rug offers a smooth texture and a graceful drape. The fine knotting allows for detailed floral articulation while maintaining durability appropriate for large formal spaces.
With its generous size and timeless color palette, this rug is ideal for grand living rooms, dining areas, or formal interiors. Its understated elegance makes it a versatile centerpiece that complements both traditional and transitional décor while carrying the character and history of an authentic antique textile.
