This vintage Turkish runner showcases a classic Anatolian medallion composition arranged vertically along the length of the rug. The elongated format highlights a sequence of softly contoured geometric medallions framed by delicate floral and symbolic motifs, a hallmark of traditional village weaving from Central Anatolia.
The rich brick-red field forms a warm and inviting foundation, beautifully balanced by soft blue medallions and subtle ivory accents. Touches of olive green and muted gold appear throughout the borders and secondary motifs, adding depth and visual rhythm without overpowering the design. The palette has aged gracefully, resulting in a refined, softly worn appearance that enhances its vintage character.
Hand-knotted using durable wool on a wool foundation, this runner reflects the practical craftsmanship of Anatolian weavers. The medium pile and even knot structure provide both resilience and clarity of design, making it well suited for high-traffic areas such as hallways or long entry corridors.
Elegant yet grounded, this Turkish vintage runner offers timeless appeal for traditional, eclectic, or transitional interiors. Its proportions and warm coloration make it an excellent choice for adding character, history, and authentic craftsmanship to narrow spaces.
