Sluane - Vintage Distressed Rug - 5'9 X 10'2

This hand-woven, one-of-a-kind piece celebrates Anatolian heritage through a flatwoven construction featuring a faded patina and abrash detail. With its overdyed finish, low-pile, no-shed, high-traffic durable surface, it is layering-friendly and underfloor-heating safe, offering a reversible weave, soft-touch distressed character, ghost-pattern, 70s craftsmanship, cotton-polyester blend, single-piece artisanal quality, and sun-bleached tones.

About This Style

Vintage rugs are designed to evoke an antique aesthetic, often featuring faded tones, abrash colour variation, and worn-look surface treatments. Distressed rugs utilise a specific process where previous use is combined with overdyeing, leaving a ghost-pattern trace of the original motif beneath the wash. Medallion rugs feature a dominant central circular, oval, or diamond-shaped motif, which is a hallmark of classical Anatolian design, typically framed by a structurally distinct border.

Where It Works

The flatwoven construction allows this rug to lie completely flat, making it suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways, entryways, and kitchens. It is compatible with underfloor heating systems and is highly effective for layering over larger carpets.

Why Choose This Rug?
