Vintage Konya Rug, 125 × 175 cm / 4.1 x 5.7 ft Handmade Wool Rug

A distinctive vintage handmade wool rug from Konya, Central Anatolia, featuring a highly structured geometric composition, bold color contrasts, and the expressive folk character associated with traditional Anatolian village weaving.

The central field combines deep navy blue and warm brick red in a strong architectural arrangement. Stylized geometric and botanical motifs are placed symmetrically throughout the field, while elongated tree-like forms and smaller abstract symbols add rhythm and visual movement.

A narrow olive-green inner border frames the central composition, followed by a broad ivory border filled with repeating stylized flowers and geometric forms. The outer green border introduces small red and blue motifs, completing the rug with a colorful layered frame.

The palette combines deep navy, brick red, ivory, olive green, muted blue, burgundy, black, and earthy accent tones. Approximately 60 years old, the rug displays the natural tonal variation and handmade irregularities expected from an authentic vintage wool textile.

About Konya Rugs

Konya is one of the historic centers of carpet weaving in Central Anatolia, Turkey. The city and surrounding villages have produced handwoven rugs for generations, with traditions shaped by settled village communities, pastoral life, and nomadic influences.

Traditional Konya rugs can feature:

• Bold geometric and architectural compositions
• Stylized flowers, trees, and botanical motifs
• Strongly outlined symbolic forms
• Medallions, stepped elements, and repeating patterns
• Rich combinations of red, blue, green, yellow, ivory, and earthy tones
• Multiple decorative borders

Village rugs from Konya are particularly valued for their individuality. Designs were often passed through generations and interpreted freely by each weaver, resulting in subtle differences in symmetry, scale, color, and motif placement.

This particular example stands out for its dark blue central field, contrasting red sections, stylized tree-like motifs, and wide ivory floral border, giving it a strong and highly decorative Anatolian identity.
