Turkish Rugs

Turkish rugs and carpets woven for modern Sacramento homes — Oushak softness, Kashan medallions and 1.5-million-point luxury weaves in sizes from 3×10 runners to 10×13 great-room carpets. Built on Turkish looms in the classical Persian-design tradition, every piece here is machine-woven for everyday durability and a soft, low-pile finish that suits high-traffic living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms. For background, see why Turkish machine-made rugs are so good.

What “Turkish rug” means at Stylish Rugs

Turkey (Anatolia) has been a carpet-weaving centre for over six centuries — and many of the Persian patterns you recognise (Kashan medallions, Tabriz florals, Heriz geometrics) were perfected on Turkish looms before travelling west. The two flagship Anatolian styles are the soft, open Oushak and the flat-woven kilim; read the Oushak guide and Turkish kilim guide for the full story. Our Turkish-loom catalog continues that tradition with modern manufacturing: tight 1,200-reed and 1.5-million-point constructions, microfibre-and-jute backing and palettes designed for current interiors.

Hand-knotted Turkish rugs (Hereke silk, Oushak, Anatolian tribal) are kept in our Sacramento showroom by appointment. If you’re shopping for a heritage carpet rather than a high-performance modern rug, visit us and we’ll bring the right pieces out of the vault. To weigh the traditions, read Persian vs Turkish rugs.

Picking the right Turkish rug for your room

Living room (78–96″ sofa) — choose 8×10; front legs of the sofa on the rug, back legs off. For a sectional, step up to 9×12 or 10×13. See 8×10 vs 9×12 by sofa depth.

Dining room — the rug must extend at least 24″ beyond every chair when pushed back; a 6-seat table needs 8×10, an 8-seat needs 9×12 or 10×13. See the 24-inch clearance rule.

King-bed bedroom — 8×10 under the lower two-thirds of the bed; 9×12 for side-coverage to the nightstands.

Hallways and kitchens — a 3×10 runner protects high-traffic floors and carries the Turkish design language across the home.

Why Turkish rugs work for modern California homes

• Colour saturation — Turkish dyes hold deep reds, navys and golds without bleeding, even in sun-bright California rooms.
• Pile durability — tight weaves resist matting under furniture and heavy foot traffic.
• Easy-care construction — microfibre-and-jute backing allows simple spot cleaning with a damp white cloth.
• Pattern flexibility — Kashan medallions read traditional in a classic home and modern-eclectic in a minimalist room.

FAQ

Is a Turkish rug the same as a Persian rug? Closely related but not identical — both sit within the broader oriental rug tradition. Turkish weavers adopted Persian patterns centuries ago and developed their own knot (Ghiordes / symmetric) versus the Persian knot (Senneh / asymmetric). See the full comparison.

Do you sell hand-knotted Turkish rugs? Yes — Hereke silk, Oushak and Anatolian tribal carpets are showroom-only by appointment and are not currently published online.

Can I get a Turkish rug in 9×12 or 12×15? Many designs come in 10×13 (300×400 cm), the closest standard Turkish-loom size to a U.S. 9×12. For 12×15 or larger, ask about custom hand-knotted commissions.

How do I clean a Turkish rug? Vacuum weekly (no beater bar), rotate every 6 months and blot spills immediately with a damp white cloth. The machine-woven pieces here are water-safe and can be professionally washed; hand-knotted heirlooms should always go to a specialist.
