Known for their minimalist geometric designs, these rugs often feature diamond-shaped medallions, eight-pointed stars, stylized birds, the tree of life, and the Elibelinde motif. They use a distinctive, limited colour palette of deep indigo blue, dark red, and white, occasionally accented with brown or cream, all dyed with natural root dyes. Made entirely from sheep’s wool using the symmetrical Turkish (Gördes) knot, they have a short, dense pile that makes them especially durable. Traditionally woven for dowries and carrying a heritage said to date back thousands of years, Yağcıbedir rugs—particularly the Sındırgı, Kepsut, and Bergama types—are highly collectible for their cultural significance, craftsmanship, and timeless rustic elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003eRepublic of Türkiye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRegion:   \u003c\/b\u003eWestern Anatolia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Wool  \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eObject Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feature table or wall rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  45cm x 47cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Insolita","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55664965648706,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/tv7FdqJJSiVUJz2xHkMildRYcgkCU1uCQvXTT-MPvseclO9JL0yFLfg8QoheR8CJfeyLfXVMKehWuzBpZ6y23vNpsUX-SWeyjESgNxlpkAUKJDx8E_VK6ogdrheO46Wtubr1T6wpojYc6xPVkaqp05SgWCUbdt2QVBiC4dqo7_Y.png?v=1785887491"},{"product_id":"mid-century-art-glass-sculpture-murano-scandinavian-freeform-gondola-design-c-1960s-1970s","title":"Mid-Century Art Glass Sculpture Murano\/Scandinavian Freeform “Gondola” Design (c.1960s-1970s)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMid-Century Art Glass Sculpture Murano\/Scandinavian Freeform Gondola\r Design (c.1960s-1970s)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand-sculpted clear crystal encasing a deep smoky-amethyst core.

While classic kilims are purely woven, pieces from this period often feature raised, decorative stitching layered over geometric, slit-weave designs, creating added texture and detail. Made primarily from hand-spun wool, they incorporate symbolic motifs such as the Elibelinde (fertility figure), protective hooks, the evil eye, and geometric medallions. By the 1980s, these textiles commonly used a mix of natural and early synthetic dyes, resulting in both earthy and slightly brighter tones, and production increasingly shifted from personal or dowry use to decorative and commercial markets, while still preserving their traditional craftsmanship and reversible structure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003eRepublic of Türkiye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRegion:   \u003c\/b\u003eAnatolia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Wool  \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eObject Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feature table or wall rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  42cm x 42cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Insolita","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55665078010178,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/IRs3oBVhbRI2enCjUJgaBKDZawAgepyhwFocy-7sjaAr5bci50Ck2Lzk9U5e6Am-eaoG0h0qIh82iyCa9NtYsx4JOUGYp4apvOv7De5s22DsQn_PlecGkfLggWyBdFuI6JUWoBb1dAl5TBi1wMDhtox8TPqYF4NnFr1PSC2JkHs.png?v=1785887485"},{"product_id":"agus-prasetyo-painting-2018-acrylic-on-canvas","title":"Agus Prasetyo painting 2018.

Typically featuring a bold central medallion with geometric or occasionally floral motifs and “running water” style borders, they commonly showcase deep reds and blues balanced with lighter accents. Woven with hand-spun wool and a solid knot density, these rugs are prized for their strength, traditional craftsmanship, and soft, velvety sheen created by natural lanolin. By the 1980s, while remaining faithful to classic designs, they began incorporating slight variations in pattern, making them especially popular today in vintage, rustic, and bohemian interiors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003eRepublic of Türkiye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRegion:   \u003c\/b\u003eCentral Anatolia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Wool  \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eObject Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feature table or wall rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  52cm x 48cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Insolita","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55665175494978,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/aPxIgkTnAJpUWvpL2UNg-9mJU4CoWvwQekun3FdMuhCIeNZvzF7rWw8a3VMXDjBledUGe-0Ju55l_xUnsgbhLa_6AZg_NyyOO1rAr79qcX8yqvNS-VM9a2k-HXMFXtB5rTcUsjTw6Q4hirWyRlwhktqX7eYK17k0t7jsAOo3O48.png?v=1785887483"},{"product_id":"cushion-50cm-x-50cm-repurposed-from-handmade-turkish-carpets-and-kilims-9","title":"Cushion 50cm x 50cm repurposed from handmade Turkish carpets and Kilims.","description":"\u003cp\u003eCushion 50cm x 50cm repurposed from beyond repair handmade Turkish carpets and Kilims.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnificent antique handmade Turkish carpets and Kilims having enjoyed a full life and now, beyond repair, are repurposed into cushions so their intrinsic beauty and cultural history can go on to be enjoyed by generations going forward.
