Vintage Turkish Prayer Rug, 3 x 4.5 ft, 90 x 136 cm, Handwoven Wool Mihrab Rug
$472.00 $590.00
This vintage Turkish prayer rug is a finely handwoven wool textile featuring an elegant architectural composition with a clearly defined mihrab, slender columns, hanging lamp motifs, and richly ornamented floral borders. Approximately 60 years old, it reflects the traditional weaving heritage of Anatolia and carries the authentic character of a handmade vintage piece.
For international buyers, this type of rug is commonly described as a Turkish prayer rug, mihrab rug, or seccade. A mihrab is the recessed niche in a mosque wall that indicates the direction of prayer. Turkish weavers adapted this architectural element into rug designs by creating a pointed or arched central niche that symbolically defines the personal prayer space.
The central ivory field is framed by delicate columns and three arched forms, while traditional hanging lamp motifs emphasize the devotional character of the design. The elaborate red floral border contrasts beautifully with the soft ivory, pale blue, gray, and muted accent tones, giving the rug a refined and highly decorative appearance.
Although originally associated with personal prayer, vintage mihrab rugs are also valued today as collectible textile art. This piece can be displayed as a wall hanging or used as a bedside rug, entryway accent, meditation-space textile, or decorative focal point in a traditional, eclectic, romantic, or bohemian interior.
Natural variations in the weave, gentle wear, subtle fading, and handmade irregularities are part of its authentic vintage character.
