Handmade Antique Karaja Rug 1910s 185 x 143cm (6.1′ x 4.7′)

This unique antique Karaja rug is a refined example of early 20th century village weaving, valued for its clarity of design and confident use of natural colour. The composition is anchored by a classic triple medallion layout, arranged across a warm terracotta red field that immediately gives the rug presence without overpowering a space. Each medallion is crisply drawn in deep blue tones, surrounded by carefully placed geometric floral motifs that add rhythm and visual interest. The wide blue border, filled with stylised flowerheads, frames the design beautifully and creates a strong contrast against the central field. Hand-knotted from robust wool and coloured with natural dyes, this rug carries the quiet depth and patina that only genuine age can produce. Its balanced proportions make it easy to place in a sitting room, study, hallway, or office, where it adds character without demanding attention. Decorative, authentic, and quietly confident, this Karaja rug is a timeless piece that brings warmth and structure to both traditional and modern interiors.
