Vintage Ensi Rug 150x109cm
Appealing Vintage Ensi Turkmen Rug
Only 1 in stock
A key detail is the presence of a prayer niche (mihrab) at one end, which confirms its ceremonial use. The rug is beautifully handwoven with fine detail, reflecting the artisan’s skill and cultural heritage.
The field showcases deep reds, rich browns, and dark blues, typical of Turkmen dyeing traditions. The rug is enhanced by strong abrushes — intentional or naturally occurring variations in wool dye tone — that create a unique striped effect and infuse the rug with movement, depth, and individuality.
Its smaller format makes it highly versatile for display, whether on the floor, as a wall hanging, or layered over furniture for a bohemian or tribal interior look.
