Geographically, its area of production can be compared to the territories which were historically dominated by the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Empire" title="Ottoman Empire">Ottoman Empire</a>. It denotes a knotted, pile-woven floor or wall covering which is produced for home use, local sale, and export, and religious purpose. Together with the flat-woven <a href="/wiki/Kilim" title="Kilim">kilim</a>, Anatolian rugs represent an essential part of the regional culture, which is officially understood as the <a href="/wiki/Culture_of_Turkey" title="Culture of Turkey">Culture of Turkey</a> today, and derives from the ethnic, religious and cultural pluralism of one of the most ancient centres of human civilisation. </p><p>Rug weaving represents a traditional craft dating back to prehistoric times. Rugs were woven much earlier than even the oldest surviving rugs like the <a href="/wiki/Pazyryk_rug" class="mw-redirect" title="Pazyryk rug">Pazyryk rug</a> would suggest. During its long history, the art and craft of the woven carpet has absorbed and integrated different cultural traditions. Traces of <a href="/wiki/Byzantine_art" title="Byzantine art">Byzantine design</a> can be observed in Anatolian rugs; <a href="/wiki/Turkic_peoples" title="Turkic peoples">Turkic peoples</a> migrating from Central Asia, as well as Armenian people, Caucasian and Kurdic tribes either living in, or migrating to Anatolia at different times in history contributed their traditional motifs and ornaments. The arrival of Islam and the development of the <a href="/wiki/Islamic_art" title="Islamic art">Islamic art</a> has profoundly influenced the Anatolian rug design. Its ornaments and patterns thus reflect the political history and social diversity of the area. Since rug export was so popular within Iran, the cultural motives and display on the Anatolian rugs vary. </p><p>Within the group of <a href="/wiki/Oriental_carpet" class="mw-redirect" title="Oriental carpet">oriental carpets</a>, the Anatolian rug is distinguished by particular characteristics of its dyes and colours, motifs, textures and techniques. Examples range in size from small pillows (<i>yastik</i>) to large, room-sized carpets. The earliest surviving examples of Anatolian rugs known today date from the thirteenth century. Distinct types of rugs have been woven ever since in court manufactures and provincial workshops, village homes, tribal settlements, or in the nomad's tent. Rugs were simultaneously produced at all different levels of society, mainly using sheep wool, cotton and <a href="/wiki/Natural_dye" title="Natural dye">natural dyes</a>. Anatolian rugs are most often tied with <a href="/wiki/Ghiordes_knot" class="mw-redirect" title="Ghiordes knot">symmetrical knots</a>, which were so widely used in the area that Western rug dealers in the early 20th century adopted the term "Turkish" or "Ghiordes" knot for the technique. From the 1870s onwards, the Ottoman court manufactures also produced silk-piled rugs, sometimes with inwoven threads of gold or silver, but the traditional material of the majority of Anatolian rugs was <a href="/wiki/Hand_spinning" title="Hand spinning">hand-spun</a>, naturally-dyed wool. </p><p>In Europe, Anatolian rugs were frequently depicted in <a href="/wiki/Oriental_carpets_in_Renaissance_painting" title="Oriental carpets in Renaissance painting">Renaissance paintings</a>, often in a context of dignity, prestige and luxury. Political contacts and trade intensified between Western Europe and the Islamic world after the 13th century AD. When direct trade was established with the Ottoman Empire during the 14th century, all kinds of carpets were at first indiscriminately given the trade name of "Turkish" carpets, regardless of their actual place of manufacture. Since the late nineteenth century, <a href="/wiki/Orientalism" title="Orientalism">oriental</a> rugs have been subject to art historic and scientific interest in the Western world. The richness and cultural diversity of rug weaving were gradually better understood. More recently, also flat woven carpets (<a href="/wiki/Kilim" title="Kilim">Kilim</a>, <a href="/wiki/Soumak_rug" class="mw-redirect" title="Soumak rug">Soumak</a>, Cicim, Zili) have attracted the interest of collectors and scientists. </p><p> The art and craft of the Anatolian rug underwent serious changes by the introduction of <a href="/wiki/Synthetic_colorant" title="Synthetic colorant">synthetic dyes</a> from the last third of the 19th century onwards. The mass production of cheap rugs designed for commercial success had brought the ancient tradition close to extinction. In the late twentieth century, projects like the <a href="/wiki/DOBAG_Carpet_Initiative" title="DOBAG Carpet Initiative">DOBAG Carpet Initiative</a> have successfully revived the tradition of Anatolian rug weaving using hand-spun, naturally-dyed wool and traditional designs<style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1129693374">.mw-parser-output .hlist dl,.mw-parser-output .hlist

Anatolia was home to ancient civilizations, such as the <a href="/wiki/Hittites" title="Hittites">Hittites</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Phrygians" title="Phrygians">Phrygians</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Assyrian_people" title="Assyrian people">Assyrians</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Persia" class="mw-redirect" title="Ancient Persia">Ancient Persians</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Armenians" title="Armenians">Armenians</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Greeks" class="mw-redirect" title="Ancient Greeks">Ancient Greeks</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Byzantine_Empire" title="Byzantine Empire">Byzantine Empire</a>.

First, there are the Turcomans; these are worshippers of Mahommet, a rude people with an uncouth language of their own. They dwell among mountains and downs where they find good pasture, for their occupation is cattle-keeping. Excellent horses, known as <i>Turquans</i>, are reared in their country, and also very valuable mules. The other two classes are the Armenians and the Greeks, who live mixt with the former in the towns and villages, occupying themselves with trade and handicrafts. They weave the finest and handsomest carpets in the world, and also a great quantity of fine and rich silks of cramoisy and other colours, and plenty of other stuffs.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>Coming from Persia, Polo travelled from Sivas to Kayseri. <a href="/wiki/Abu%27l-Fida" class="mw-redirect" title="Abu'l-Fida">Abu'l-Fida</a>, citing <a href="/wiki/Ibn_Sa%27id_al-Maghribi" title="Ibn Sa'id al-Maghribi">Ibn Sa'id al-Maghribi</a> refers to rug export from Anatolian cities in the late 13th century: "That's where Turkoman carpets are made, which are exported to all other countries". He and the Moroccan merchant <a href="/wiki/Ibn_Battuta" title="Ibn Battuta">Ibn Battuta</a> mention Aksaray as a major rug weaving center in the early-to-mid-14th century. </p><p>The earliest surviving woven rugs were found in <a href="/wiki/Konya" title="Konya">Konya</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bey%C5%9Fehir" title="Beyşehir">Beyşehir</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fostat" class="mw-redirect" title="Fostat">Fostat</a>, and were dated to the 13th century. These carpets from the <a href="/wiki/Sultanate_of_Rum" title="Sultanate of Rum">Anatolian Seljuq Period</a> (1243–1302) are regarded as the first group of Anatolian rugs. Eight fragments were found in 1905 by F.R.

Where exactly these carpets were woven is unknown. The field patterns of the Konya rugs are mostly geometric, and small in relation to the carpet size. Similar patterns are arranged in diagonal rows: Hexagons with plain, or hooked outlines; squares filled with stars, with interposed <a href="/wiki/Kufic" title="Kufic">kufic</a>-like ornaments; hexagons in diamonds composed of rhomboids filled with stylized flowers and leaves. Their main borders often contain kufic ornaments. The corners are not "resolved", which means that the border design is cut off, and does not continue diagonally around the corners. The colours (blue, red, green, to a lesser extent also white, brown, yellow) are subdued, frequently two shades of the same colour are opposed to each other. Nearly all carpet fragments show different patterns and ornaments. </p><p>The Beyşehir rugs are closely related to the Konya specimen in design and colour.<sup id="cite_ref-Erdmann,_Seven_Hundred_Years_of_Oriental_Carpets,_1970_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Erdmann,_Seven_Hundred_Years_of_Oriental_Carpets,_1970-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In contrast to the "<a href="/wiki/Early_Anatolian_Animal_carpets" class="mw-redirect" title="Early Anatolian Animal carpets">animal carpets</a>" of the following period, depictions of animals are rarely seen in the Seljuq fragments. Rows of horned quadrupeds placed opposite to each other, or birds beside a tree can be recognized on some fragments. </p><p>The style of the Seljuq rugs has parallels amongst the architectural decoration of contemporaneous mosques such as those at <a href="/wiki/Divri%C4%9Fi_Great_Mosque_and_Hospital" title="Divriği Great Mosque and Hospital">Divriği</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sivas" title="Sivas">Sivas</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Erzurum" title="Erzurum">Erzurum</a>, and may be related to Byzantine art.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Today, the rugs are kept at the <a href="/wiki/Mevlana_Museum" class="mw-redirect" title="Mevlana Museum">Mevlana Museum</a> in Konya, and at the <a href="/wiki/Turkish_and_Islamic_Arts_Museum" title="Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum">Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum</a> in Istanbul. </p> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 182px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 177px; height: 177px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Konya_Ethnographical_Museum_-_Carpet_1.png" class="mw-file-description" title="Rug fragment from Eşrefoğlu Mosque, Beysehir, Turkey.

Since the Ottoman Turks occupied the former Persian capital of <a href="/wiki/Tabriz" title="Tabriz">Tabriz</a> in the first half of the sixteenth century, they would have knowledge of, and access to Persian medallion carpets. Several examples are known to have been in Turkey at an early date, such as the carpet that Erdmann found in the Topkapı Palace.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Ushak carpet medallion, however, conceived as part of an endless repeat, represents a specific Turkish idea, and is different from the Persian understanding of a self-contained central medallion.<sup id="cite_ref-Denny,_Ottoman_court_carpet_designs_23-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Denny,_Ottoman_court_carpet_designs-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Star and medallion Ushaks represent an important innovation, as in them, floral ornaments appear in Turkish carpets for the first time.

The resulting design scheme resembles the classical Persian medallion design. Counterintuitive to the prayer rug design, some of the double niche Ushaks have central medallions as well.

However, the traditional, hand-woven, naturally dyed Turkish carpet is a very labour-intense product, as each step in its manufacture requires considerable time, from the preparation, spinning, dyeing of the wool to setting up the loom, knotting each knot by hand, and finishing the carpet before it goes to market. In an attempt to save on resources and cost, and maximise on profit in a competitive market environment, synthetic <a href="/wiki/Dyes" class="mw-redirect" title="Dyes">dyes</a>, non-traditional weaving tools like the <a href="/wiki/Power_loom" title="Power loom">power loom</a>, and standardized designs were introduced. This led to a rapid breakdown of the tradition, resulting in the degeneration of an art which had been cultivated for centuries.

The most common materials used for the pile are wool, silk and cotton. Nomadic and village weavers sometimes also use goat- and camel-hair. Traditionally, spinning is done by <a href="/wiki/Hand_spinning" title="Hand spinning">hand</a>. Several strands of yarn are then <a href="/wiki/Plying" title="Plying">plied</a> together so that the resulting yarn is strong enough to be used for weaving. </p><p><br /> <a href="/wiki/Wool" title="Wool"><b>Sheep's wool</b></a> is the most frequently used pile material in a Turkish rug because it is soft, durable, easy to work with and not too expensive. It is less susceptible to dirt than cotton, does not react electrostatically, and insulates against both heat and cold. This combination of characteristics is not found in other natural fibers. Wool comes from the coats of sheep. Natural wool comes in colors of white, brown, fawn, yellow and gray, which are sometimes used directly without going through a dyeing process, sheep's wool also takes dyes well. Traditionally, wool used for Turkish carpets is <a href="/wiki/Hand_spinning" title="Hand spinning">spun by hand</a>. Before the yarn can be used for weaving, several strands have to be twisted together for additional strength. </p><p><b><a href="/wiki/Cotton" title="Cotton">Cotton</a></b> is used primarily in the foundation, the <a href="/wiki/Warp_(weaving)" class="mw-redirect" title="Warp (weaving)">warps</a> and <a href="/wiki/Warp_and_woof" class="mw-redirect" title="Warp and woof"> wefts</a> of rugs. Cotton is stronger than wool, and, when used for the foundation, makes a carpet lie flat on the ground, as it is not as easily distorted as woolen strings. Some weavers, such as Turkomans, also use cotton for weaving small white details into the rug in order to create contrast. </p><p>Wool-on-wool (wool pile on wool warp and weft): This is the most traditional type of Anatolian rug. Wool-on-wool carpet weaving dates back further and utilizes more traditional design-motifs than its counterparts. Because wool cannot be spun extra finely, the <a href="/wiki/Knot_count" class="mw-redirect" title="Knot count">knot count</a> is often not as high as seen in a "wool-on-cotton" or "silk-on-silk" rug. Wool-on-wool carpets are more frequently attributed to tribal or nomadic production. </p><p>Wool-on-<a href="/wiki/Cotton" title="Cotton">cotton</a> (wool pile on cotton warp and weft): This particular combination facilitates a more intricate design-pattern than a "wool-on-wool carpet", as cotton can be finely spun which allows for a higher knot-count. A "wool-on-cotton" rug is often indicative of a town weaver. Due to their higher pile density, wool-on-cotton carpets are heavier than wool-on-wool rugs. </p><p><b><a href="/wiki/Silk" title="Silk">Silk</a></b>-on-silk (silk pile on silk warp and weft): This is the most intricate type of carpet, featuring a very fine weave.

A <a href="/wiki/Loom" title="Loom">loom</a>, a horizontal or upright framework, is needed to mount the vertical <a href="/wiki/Warp_(weaving)" class="mw-redirect" title="Warp (weaving)">warps</a> into which the pile nodes are knotted, and one or more shoots of horizontal <a href="/wiki/Warp_and_woof" class="mw-redirect" title="Warp and woof">wefts</a> are woven ("shot") in after each row of knots in order to further stabilize the fabric. Wefts can be either undyed or dyed, mostly in red and blue. </p><p>The pile knots are usually knotted by hand. Most rugs from Anatolia utilize the symmetrical <a href="/wiki/Ghiordes_knot" class="mw-redirect" title="Ghiordes knot">Turkish double knot</a>. Each knot is made on two warps. With this form of knotting, each end of the pile thread is twisted around two warp threads at regular intervals, so that both ends of the knot come up between two strands on one side of the carpet. The thread is then pulled downwards and cut with a knife. </p><p>After a row of knots has been inserted, one or two, sometimes more, rows of wefts are woven in, and the fabric is compacted by beating with a heavy comb. Once the carpet is finished, it is cut from the loom. The sides or <a href="/wiki/Selvedge" class="mw-redirect" title="Selvedge">selvages</a> are usually overcast in wool. The selvages consist of up to ten warp threads. Especially village and nomadic rugs have flat-woven <a href="/wiki/Kilim" title="Kilim">kilim</a> ends, sometimes including pile-woven tribal signs or village crests. The pile of the carpet is shorn with special knives in order to obtain an equal surface. In some carpets, a relief effect is obtained by clipping the pile unevenly. Finally, the carpet is washed before it is used, or goes to the market. </p><p>The upright pile of Turkish rugs usually falls in one direction, as knots are always pulled down before the string of pile yarn is cut off and work resumes on the next knot, piling row after row of knots on top of each other. When touching a carpet, this creates a feeling similar to stroking an animal's fur. This can be used to determine where the weaver has started knotting the pile. The pile in Turkish carpets is usually between 2 and 4 mm thick. Coarse nomadic rugs like the <a href="/wiki/Y%C3%BCr%C3%BCk" class="mw-redirect" title="Yürük">Yürük</a> rugs, can be as thick as 12 mm. A special bedding carpet called <i>yatak</i> may reach a pile thickness of 20 to 25 mm. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Origins_and_traditions_of_Anatolian_rug_design">Origins and traditions of Anatolian rug design</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anatolian_rug&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: Origins and traditions of Anatolian rug design"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Anatolian rug design integrates different strands of traditions.

Depicting animals or humans is <a href="/wiki/Aniconism_in_Islam" title="Aniconism in Islam">prohibited</a> in the Islamic tradition, which does not distinguish between religious and profane life. Since the codification of the <a href="/wiki/Quran" title="Quran">Quran</a> by <a href="/wiki/Uthman" title="Uthman">Uthman Ibn Affan</a> in 651 AD/19 AH and the <a href="/wiki/Umayyad_Caliphate" title="Umayyad Caliphate">Umayyad</a><a href="/wiki/Abd_al-Malik_ibn_Marwan" title="Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan">Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan</a> reforms, <a href="/wiki/Islamic_art" title="Islamic art">Islamic art</a> has focused on writing and ornament.

Usually, these "kufic" borders consist of lam-alif- or alif-lam sequences in an interwoven pattern. </p><p>The main fields of Anatolian rugs are frequently filled with redundant, interwoven patterns in "infinite repeat". Thus, the rug represents a section of an infinite pattern, which is imagined as continuing beyond its borders and into the infinite. </p><p>A specific Islamic pattern is the mihrab pattern which defines the <a href="/wiki/Prayer_rug" title="Prayer rug">Prayer rug</a>. A prayer rug is characterized by a niche at one end, representing the <a href="/wiki/Mihrab" title="Mihrab">mihrab</a> in every mosque, a directional point to direct the <a href="/wiki/Worship" title="Worship">worshipper</a> towards <a href="/wiki/Mecca" title="Mecca">Mecca</a>. The mihrab pattern in Turkish carpets is often modified and may consist of a single, double, or vertically or horizontally multiplied niche. Thus the niche pattern can range from a concrete, architectural to a more ornamental understanding of the design. Prayer rugs are often woven "upside down", as becomes apparent when the direction of the pile is felt by touching the carpet. This has both technical (the weaver can focus on the more complicated niche design first), and practical reasons (the pile inclines in the direction of the worshipper's prostration). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_cultural_influences">Other cultural influences</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anatolian_rug&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Other cultural influences"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg/150px-Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg" decoding="async" width="150" height="200" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg/225px-Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg/300px-Vintage_Turkish_Kilim_Geometric_Patterned_Rug.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="1600" /></a><figcaption>Anatolian kilim with a geometric pattern</figcaption></figure> <p>Large, geometric shapes are considered to be of Caucasian or <a href="/wiki/Turkmens" title="Turkmens">Turkmen</a> origin.

Kum Kapı was, in the nineteenth century, the Armenian quarter of Istanbul. The asymmetrical knot was used. Silk carpets produced here often were woven with silver and gold threads. Two of the most prominent designer weavers were Zareh Penyamian and Tossounian. Zareh is known for his prayer rugs, which often included the "Sultan's head" form of the mihrab, cloud bands in the prayer field, palmettes and arabesque patterns and <a href="/wiki/Quran" title="Quran">Quranic</a> inscriptions.
