This vintage Turkish runner rug was hand-knotted in the Central Anatolian region and showcases an elegant triple medallion composition set against a rich burgundy field. The medallions are finely detailed with floral and geometric elements, framed by a beautifully patterned border that enhances the rug’s symmetry and balance.

Woven with wool pile on a cotton foundation, the rug features naturally dyed colors that have matured gracefully over time. The contrast between the deep burgundy ground and the lighter ivory and gold accents creates a refined yet warm visual presence.

Its long runner format makes this piece especially well-suited for hallways, wide corridors, or grand entryways, where it can anchor the space with both color and heritage. The rug is in very good vintage condition, with age-appropriate wear that adds to its authentic character.

Circa 1960.
