Turkish Bag / 16784

This Turkish Bag antique rug measures 51 x 61 cm and presents a compact composition of striped geometry, zigzag bands, and animated tasselled ends. Wool lends the piece a tactile, grounded feel, while the palette shifts through charcoal grey, cream, red, orange, and magenta with subtle variation and depth. Medium wear has softened the surface and brought out a quiet irregularity across the colours. Circa 1880 - 1900, it carries the expressive rhythm and handmade character that define an intimate textile with lasting presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
