Vintage 1950s Konya Kilim Rug, 81 x 120 cm = 2.8 x 3.1 ft

This beautiful kilim rug, woven in the 1950s in the historic town of Konya, central Turkey, is a stunning example of Anatolian craftsmanship. Renowned for their spiritual symbolism and geometric clarity, Konya kilims often reflect themes of protection, abundance, and life’s journey—and this piece is no exception.

At the heart of the rug lies a powerful central medallion in soft pink tones, surrounded by layers of zigzag and triangle motifs, symbolizing energy and resilience. The earthy palette—featuring rosewood, mustard yellow, cream, terracotta, and lilac—was achieved using natural dyes and speaks to the grounded harmony of the Konya plateau.

Its compact size and striking visual rhythm make it ideal as a statement piece for a reading nook, wall decor, or beside a bed. Made entirely of hand-spun wool, this kilim carries the soul of a weaver and the timeless elegance of mid-century Anatolia.
