As a result of their exquisiteness, fashion sense, eco-friendliness, handcraftsmanship, and affordability, Vintage carpets are in trend! Vintage rugs, also known as distressed vintage carpets, are a trend that skillfully combines interior design and fashion. As much as they want their pants to seem “lived in,” people also want their rugs to look “lived on”. This new design pays homage to textiles that have aged, softened, and faded with time and carpets that blend into homes like they’ve been there forever.
Even though the method has gained popularity worldwide, the best vintage carpets and overdyed works are still created in Turkey, utilising authentic hand-knotted old and antique rugs. It could be because over-dying carries on Turkey’s custom of reuse and repurposing, in which household items are fixed rather than thrown out.
