This long beige and brown Turkish wool rug has beautiful tribal design and warm earth tones that will ground any space this rug is in. The Anatolian rug is distinguished by particular characteristics of its dyes and colors, motifs, textures and techniques. Examples range in size from small pillows (yastik) to large, room-sized carpets. The earliest surviving examples of Anatolian rugs known today date from the thirteenth century. Distinct types of rugs have been woven ever since in court manufactures and provincial workshops, village homes, tribal settlements, or in the nomad's tent. Rugs were simultaneously produced at all different levels of society, mainly using sheep wool, cotton and dyes. Anatolian rugs are most often tied with symetrical knots, which were so widely used in the area that Western rug dealers in the early 20th century adopted the term "Turkish" or "Ghiordes" knot for the technique.
