3x10 ft Signed 1940s Vintage Anatolian Runner Rug: Hand Knotted Wool Hallway Carpet, Authentic Village Weaving

A long, elegant runner with 80+ years of history.

Anatolian rugs have been hand-knotted in the villages of Turkey for centuries, with each piece carrying its maker’s cultural identity. The runner format—long and narrow—was ideal for traditional homes and nomadic tents. Geometric motifs were not merely decorative, but protective symbols believed to bring prosperity and ward off bad luck. A 1940s piece like this offers a tangible connection to everyday life in rural Turkey during the mid-20th century.

This 3.4 x 10 feet handmade wool runner from the 1940s is an exquisite example of Anatolian village weaving, blending timeless geometric design with the lived-in beauty of true vintage craftsmanship. Its narrow proportions make it perfect for adding warmth, texture, and heritage to hallways, kitchens, and entryways.

Rooted in rural artistry
Each knot was tied by hand using locally spun wool and vegetable dyes. The patterns carry traditional Anatolian symbols representing prosperity, protection, and unity—motifs that have decorated Turkish homes for centuries.
