Madder Red Pergamum Antique Turkish Rug • Rustic Handmade Kiz Bergama Anatolian Village Rug (5'6"x8'3")

Madder Red Soma Pergamum Turkish Rug • Antique Handmade Carpet • 6x8 Rustic Wool Rustic Area for Living Room, Bedroom, Dining & Study 

✔ This rug carries a powerful village presence, where bold Anatolian geometry and deep natural colors create a grounded, timeless character.

Handwoven in the Soma / Pergamum region of Western Turkey, this antique rug dates to the 1920s and belongs to the well-known Kiz Bergama tradition. The composition features a striking open field centered by a stylized tribal medallion, framed by corner motifs and strong geometric borders. The design feels confident and balanced, reflecting the expressive weaving language of Bergama village rugs.

The palette is rich and earthy — a deep madder red field with a deep indigo medallion, charcoal borders, soft ivory highlights, and touches of muted olive and walnut brown.Subtle horizontal striping appears across the field due to natural abrash, where slight variations in the wool cause some yarns dyed the same color to absorb and age differently over time. These tonal shifts create gentle movement in the field and stand as a testament to the rug’s authentic antique character.

Hand-knotted from wool, the rug now has a low, evenly worn pile, giving it a smooth, time-softened texture while keeping the design clearly visible. The wear is consistent across the surface, a quality collectors appreciate in genuine village rugs that have aged gracefully over time. At 5'6" × 8'3", this versatile size works beautifully in living rooms, studies, bedrooms, or layered spaces where an antique Anatolian rug can anchor the room with warmth and character.
