Motifs & Design

This rug’s motifs reflect a classic tribal aesthetic. Rows of bold diamond shapes traverse the field, each enclosing a stylized floral or star-like motif at its center. A large central medallion, rendered as a simplified floral symbol, anchors the design and adds an organic touch. The outer edges are lined with a stepped zigzag border, repeating angular patterns in a traditional Anatolian style. Together, these simple yet evocative motifs create a rustic, handcrafted charm that complements bohemian, farmhouse, or eclectic decor.
