Product code: Handmade order 21
This is a mid-century Turkish rug. It is hand knotted with all wool fiber on a cotton warp and weft as are the majority of all oriental rugs. The design is floral in nature with many different plants. The dyes used are not synthetic. It is a country rug not made in a city factory but likely made by one person on a home loom. It has a large central medallion surrounded by many fixtures. The colors are red, green, brown, green, white and blue and are all quite brilliant. There are three borders and many different kinds of flowers. This rug is in good condition for its age, has no spots worn to the foundation and has no stains. This rug has approximately 80 knots per square inch making it a very coarsely woven rug although that adds up to 50,000. I have been selling on eBay for 24 years and have 100% feedback under the name Acanthus. Oriental rugs need not be so expensive but order be aware of machine made rugs as well as factory made hand-tied rugs using petrochemicals and underpaid labor.
