Vintage Turkish Prayer Rug, 3 x 4.9 ft, 91 x 150 cm, Handwoven Wool Rug

This vintage Turkish wool rug is a beautifully handwoven piece with a bold and elegant design. Its rich red field is framed by a detailed border in warm gold, ivory, and soft earthy tones, while the central composition features layered floral and medallion motifs that give the rug a refined and timeless Anatolian character.

Approximately 60 years old, this rug was handwoven in Turkey using wool, and it carries the charm that only genuine vintage pieces can offer. The balanced design, warm color palette, and soft aged surface make it a lovely choice for collectors, interior designers, and anyone looking for an authentic textile with character.

For international buyers, rugs in this design tradition are often described as Turkish prayer rugs, mihrab rugs, or seccade. In Turkish weaving culture, a seccade is a personal prayer rug, and the broader style family is associated with devotional and symbolic compositions. Even when the layout is more decorative and medallion-based, these pieces are commonly appreciated within the same traditional Anatolian prayer rug heritage. Today, they are also widely used as decorative rugs and collectible accents in interiors.

This rug works beautifully as a small area rug, bedside rug, entry rug, or wall hanging. It brings warmth, history, and handmade authenticity into both traditional and eclectic spaces.

As with all vintage handmade rugs, slight irregularities, age-related wear, and subtle variations in color are part of the rug’s authenticity and should be appreciated as signs of its handmade and vintage nature.
