Anatito Anati10 Ivory Wool Handmade Carpet 9'9" x 12'6"

An ivory field with a pastel medallion is the softest reading of the Anatolian tribal vocabulary, the version that suits modern interiors built on plaster, raw oak, and natural linen. The Anati10 ivory works that lineage at full drawing-room scale, with the medallion drawn down to a quiet emblem and the border worked in vine and dot rather than the layered framings of older studio rugs. The 9'9" x 12'6" (297 x 381 cm) length sits inside a primary living area without overwhelming it.

The rug came off the tufting frame in India after eight weeks of work by two tufters and a finisher. Wool was pushed through a stretched cotton canvas with a hand-held tufting gun, the medallion laid first and the ivory field worked outward in graduated passes. The back was sealed with natural latex and a cotton scrim. Long shears carved the medallion a millimetre below the field so the silhouette holds under direct light. The rug was washed twice and sun-dried flat to set the pile.

The composition

An ivory ground carries a softened medallion in pale rose, baby blue, walnut, and ochre, framed by an ornamental border of vine and dot motifs. The ivory itself shifts between bone and warm cream under different light because the wool takes dye unevenly. The medallion is laid as a quiet centre rather than a heavy anchor, and the border is restrained enough to keep the whole composition from going busy. The composition reads architectural rather than tribal.

The piece in a room

9'9" x 12'6" (297 x 381 cm) suits a primary living room with a long sectional, a ten-seat dining table, or the floor of a master suite. The ivory ground brightens rooms with deep walls and pairs with walnut, oak, brass, and warm linen. The rug works under both modern abstract art and classical figurative work. Light walls let the medallion read as the focal centre.

Care

Vacuum weekly with the beater bar disengaged so the wool is not pulled. Every hand-tufted rug loses a small quantity of fibre during the first six to eight weeks of use. Blot spills with a clean cotton cloth and never rub. A professional dry clean every three years lifts settled dust and keeps the ivory from yellowing. The rug holds its hand for fifteen years and beyond.
