This antique Konya rug, woven in Anatolia circa 1890, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind tribal carpet distinguished by its bold geometric drawing, compartmented field, and richly expressive border work. Saturated rust, terracotta, green, and indigo tones animate the angular medallion forms and small animal motifs, showcasing the character and artistry collectors prize in late 19th-century village weaving. A striking statement piece for a hallway, entryway, or living room.
Muted warm tones of rust, terra cotta, sage, indigo, ivory, camel, burgundy, and rose, with a rust field.
Konya is one of the oldest urban sites in the World, and was established as the Seljuk capital in 1077. It has a rich history of carpet weaving. Fragments of rugs were discovered in 1905 in the Alaeddin Mosque that have been tentatively dated to the Seljuk period in the thirteenth to fourteenth century. They produce geometric rugs with a soft supple handle. Antique rugs from Konya are highly sought after by collectors and the rugs produced in the early part of the 20th century are more contemporary in their drawing making them very decorative.
