Turkish rugs: the perfect mix of traditional and contemporary
Wooden floors are fashionable. They look beautiful and are easy to care for and keep clean, but they can leave homes feeling cold. Adding vintage Turkish-style rugs to your floors brings warmth and texture in one purchase. Hardwood floors in dark tones can cause a room to look gloomy, but adding a brightly coloured rug will lighten it up in an instant. Light tones on walls and floors feel bright and fresh but can lack interest. Remedy this by throwing down an intricately patterned Turkish runner rug to provide a touch of visual interest. Mixing contemporary interior styles with traditional carpets creates an interior that’s both modern and sophisticated.
What are Turkish rugs made from?
Turkish rugs are made from three main materials - Cotton, silk, wool, or a combination of all three. The price of the rug will tell you whether a rug is handmade or machine-spun.
Are Turkish rugs good quality?
The finest Turkish rugs are made from wool or silk and are hand-spun. The machine-spun cotton examples aren't as sought after, but are still worth considering if you're on a budget.

Handmade artisanal rugs
Many of the rugs in our collection have been handmade by skilled artisans. Vintage Turkish rugs are unique pieces of art with a long history, and each one tells a story. They range from intricately patterned designs in rich colours to subtle Turkish carpets in one or two tones, enabling you to mix and match them with your decor. Many Turkish-style rugs have a distressed, boho aesthetic which will complement a shabby chic interior style. And because they’re handwoven from high-quality pure wool, each one is unique.
As well as feeling good underfoot, vintage Turkish rugs also make beautiful tapestries. And because they feature such vibrant colours they can easily be matched with wall art you already have or become the beginning of a new collection.
