5'x7' Antique Turkish Medallion Rug | Animal & Floral Motifs

This exquisite antique Turkish rug is a rare example of early 19th-century Anatolian craftsmanship, featuring a large central medallion design flanked by an elaborate floral and animal motif field. Woven with a deep burgundy red as the dominant ground color, the rug is richly adorned with elegant animal figures—likely stylized birds and mythical creatures—interspersed among flowering vines and palmettes. The central medallion and corner spandrels are rendered in warm blush, faded gold, and soft ivory tones, lending the piece a regal yet faded beauty that speaks to its age.
