51196 Vintage Turkish Yastik Rug, 01'08 x 02'06.
This exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Yastik rug captivates with its richly striated purple and plum-colored field, evoking a sense of depth and mystery. At the heart of the design lies a striking octagonal medallion, which is adorned with a tiny Goz eye motif at its center. The Goz eye, a powerful symbol of protection, serves as a guardian against the evil eye, making this rug not just a decorative piece, but also a talismanic object. Surrounding the central motif are intricate stylized florals and foliage, interspersed with four vibrant blue and pink bird motifs. These birds symbolize happiness, joy, love, and the anticipation of good news, infusing the Turkish rug with a sense of vitality and hope.
Each corner spandrel of this Yastik rug is adorned with concentric triangular amulets, reinforcing the protective nature of the design. These amulets are believed to ward off malevolent spirits, adding another layer of cultural significance to this vintage Yastik rug. The sharp geometry of the amulets contrasts beautifully with the organic curves of the floral motifs, creating a dynamic interplay between the different elements. This balance of shapes and symbols reflects the artistry and intent of the weaver, who sought to create not just a visual masterpiece, but a piece imbued with deeper meaning.
Framing the composition, the rug is bordered by a rectilinear running water motif, symbolizing purification and the flow of life. The rectangular endcaps, adorned with meandering carnations, further enhance the rug's beauty, creating a striking juxtaposition against the angular forms of the amulets and medallion. The overall effect is one of harmony and protection, making this vintage Turkish Yastik rug a truly enchanting addition to any space, where it will not only adorn but also safeguard and uplift the atmosphere.
