Olive Green Esme Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug • Handmade Wool Geometric Flatweave (5'11"x12'2")

Vibrant Esme Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug •  Handmade Wool Flatweave Carpet • 6x12 Anatolian Tribal Long Area Rug for Living Room, Bedroom, Dining & Collected Interiors

 ✔  This vintage Esme kilim has a bold, rhythmic presence, with a long composition of repeating diamond medallions arranged across the field. The design is dense, graphic, and beautifully balanced, creating a rug that feels both decorative and deeply rooted in Anatolian village weaving.

The palette is rich and distinctive — muted olive green, deep plum, dusty periwinkle blue, coral red, warm ivory, burgundy, dusty pink, charcoal brown, and small flashes of vivid pink. The colors have mellowed beautifully over time, giving the rug depth and warmth while preserving the strength of the geometric pattern.

Handwoven in the 1950s, this kilim reflects the weaving tradition of Esme, a small town in the well-known Usak / Oushak region of western Turkey. Esme kilims are recognized for their bold geometry, strong color relationships, highly structured repeating compositions, and especially expressive use of green.

Large central diamonds run down the length of the rug, surrounded by smaller medallions, hooked forms, and angular motifs. The repetition creates a strong visual rhythm, while subtle variations in color and drawing reveal the individuality of the handweaving.

Woven from Turkish wool in a flatweave construction, the rug has a firm, practical surface and authentic vintage character. Its long format makes it especially effective in spaces where a standard rectangle may feel too short or too wide.

At 5'11" × 12'2", this is a generous long-format kilim for living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, wide hallways, gallery-like spaces, or collected interiors where strong pattern and traditional craftsmanship can take center stage.
