This new hand-knotted Turkish runner rug features a long, narrow format with a repeating medallion and floral vine design along the length. The transitional style combines traditional Oushak-inspired motifs with a light, airy color scheme that feels fresh and modern. The wool pile is soft and well-constructed for everyday use.
Turkish runners like this one draw from the heritage of Oushak weaving in western Turkey, where large-scale floral and medallion patterns have been adapted into practical hallway and corridor sizes. These designs often use open space and soft palettes to create an elegant flow that suits contemporary homes while nodding to classic Ottoman influences. This example maintains the loose, comfortable weave typical of modern Turkish production.
The rug’s durable wool construction handles foot traffic well, making it ideal for hallways, entryways, or beside kitchen islands. Its neutral tones blend easily with many decor styles, and the elongated shape adds visual length to narrow spaces. Simple vacuuming and periodic professional cleaning will keep the colors bright and the pile in good shape over time.
