51419 Vintage Turkish Yastik Rug, 01'08 x 03'02. 

This hand-knotted wool vintage Turkish Yastik rug exudes a timeless charm with its rich red field, a backdrop that enhances its intricate central medallion. The cusped medallion, a dynamic blend of soft lavender-gray and warm reds, is adorned with curled ambiguous motifs that interweave in a mesmerizing pattern, capturing the eye and inviting closer inspection. Its unique shape, reminiscent of a stylized starburst, lends an air of movement and vitality, symbolizing protection and prosperity in Anatolian tradition.

The rug's corners are embellished with angular Anatolian motifs in hues of green hues, eggplant, and beige, adding a distinct layer of complexity to the overall composition. These motifs, strategically placed, not only balance the central medallion but also echo the rug's cultural heritage, where such designs often serve as symbols of fertility, strength, and protection. The motifs stand out against the deep red field, providing a striking contrast that adds depth and texture to the piece.

Framing the entire rug is a charming border filled with small floral motifs, each one meticulously hand-knotted to create a harmonious rhythm around the central design. The rectangular endcaps, with its alternating panels of ambiguous pronged Anatolian symbols, run along either end elegantly, capturing the eye and drawing it inward toward the mesmerizing botanical border. This Yastik rug, with its vibrant color palette and traditional design elements, brings a sense of warmth and elegance to any space, embodying both the artistry and the cultural significance of Turkish weaving traditions.
