Product code: Store Handmade 25
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. Many Afghan rugs are all wool and some Turkish and Iranian rugs have a silk base but comparatively few. The design is solely geometric and 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 triple central medallion. The colors are red, black, and white and are all very striking. This rug is in good condition for its age, has no spots worn to the store foundation and has no stains. This rug has approximately 96 knots per square inch making it a medium woven rug. I have been selling on eBay for 24 years and have 100% feedback under the name Acanthus. I've decided to sell some of my oriental rugs on Mercari.Oriental rugs need not be so expensive but be aware of machine made rugs as well as factory made hand-tied rugs using petrochemicals and poorly paid labor.
