10 x 11 Vintage Turkish Kars Rug 52456

52456 Earth-Tone Vintage Turkish Kars Rug, 10'00 x 10'08.

This hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Oushak rug features three columns of large-scale Kotchanak motifs filled with stepped medallions. Derived from the virility of the Ram's Horn motif, the Kotchanak is also a fertility symbol. The Classic Elibelinde motif, also known as the “hands on hips” or goddess motif, is thought to represent motherhood and fertility while ram’s horns represent masculinity and power. The fertility bereket motifs that appear combine the symbols of both man and woman, often referred to as ram’s Horn and hands-on-hips motifs, into one design with a diamond in the centre. The composition expertly uses negative space to let its bold geometric designs take center stage. Warm and inviting combined with the right amount of necessary aesthetic elements, this Kars rug charms with ease and stays true to fine craftsmanship and the simplicity of Mission style.

Perfect for a living room, front room, bedroom, library, den, mudroom, study, office, sunroom or sitting room. Well-suited for a wide range of interior styles: Traditional, Transitional, Amish, Shaker, Minimalist, Organic Modern, Scandinavian Modern, Nordic, Danish Design, Monochromatic Mission, Eclectic, Modern, American Colonial, Contemporary, Industrial, Rustic, Lodge, Cabin, Cottage, Bungalow, Mid-Century Modern, Nomadic, Ethnic, Primitive and Tribal. The subtle hues in this vintage Turkish rug balance out spaces with bolder colors and dark architectural elements allowing a space to transition from casual to luxurious, without sacrificing comfort. The limited color palette based around warm earth-tone colors has a calming sensibility while pink accents add visual interest and the perfect amount of color pop.
