Attractive Anatolian is a nomadic rug: a cool, rustic type just waiting to pimp up any room. Carpets like this one are made by nomads directly from memory, freestyle and without a pattern. The rug was made in the Anatolian region of Turkey. The geometric pattern is typical of nomadic tribes and the villagers of the Orient. With over 100 years of age, this rug is considered an exclusive antique collector's item. It is the epitome of boss-like stability: honest sheep's wool is undoubtedly the most important material for a hand-knotted rug. After shearing, the wool is divided into different grades, cleaned, washed and further processed by hand. Hand weaving with a loom is the oldest method of making a rug. The long tradition has allowed many regional characteristics to develop. Typically, hand-woven rugs do not have a pile, however, they have an identical pattern on each side and can therefore be used on both sides. Woven carpets are very robust and durable because of their compact structure.
