SUN KISSED Elephants and Butterflies Turkamon / Ersari Runner | Rusty Terracotta & Lake Blues | ~ 3.7 x 10

Title: SUN KISSED Elephants and Butterflies Turkamon / Ersari Runner | Rusty Terracotta & Lake Blues 

Size: ~ 3.7 x 10

Age: Vintage, C. 1940-50's

Pile: Low/Medium pile with age-related wear and character-rich patina.  This piece is in good shape but has 3 spots I might reweave (see pics - 2 corners are worn in and one side is worn in too). It's priced accordingly because I haven't reworked them yet; I'll adjust the price once I do. If you're looking for a great price on a lovely piece and are comfortable with the hiccups, here it is. If/when I reweave these 3 areas, the price will be around $2500 or so. 

About: These pieces were inspired by the journeys and travels of the Silk Road. Elephant tracks, bird tracks, the stars and the waves - butterflies fluttering and lots of negative space make this piece a beauty for the eyes and soul.  The colors are pleasing and the overall tonality is subtle, which is really nice.  

This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one in the world; no others are available.

Because of the nature and age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities and age-related wear are likely to exist and are not considered defects. 

Any questions about this rug? Don't hesitate to reach out!

We always recommend a high-quality custom cut pad for any and all rugs; these pads are made for hand-knotted rugs. They create a body and support the knots of the rug, as well as prevent it from slipping and sliding.

A note from us to you: Buying a rug is special; it's not just you finding the rug, but also the rug finding you. Think about the many coincidences that have to occur for you to find the rug of your dreams. Our rugs are woven by nomads in the villages and remote mountainous regions of the major rug weaving districts across the world. All of our rugs are genuinely old and one-of-a-kind. Like anything old and unique, they are filled with character, soul, and story. The story of a rug is something we think about a lot; who was the weaver(s)? Did they weave it for personal use, commerce, to gift, or trade? Who was the second owner, and the third!? Sometimes the little motifs and symbols in rugs can help tell the story, but we will never truly know - there's something beautiful about that. Alas, our joy is to curate these incredible pieces that speak to us, and to pass them along to their new owners to be enjoyed and cherished for many years to come; both continuing to add to the story of the rug, and to the story of the new owners.
