Unique Contemporary ‘Sampler’ Rug.
The long and interesting history of the enigmatic Sample’ rugs was such that most versions of these are vintage or antique so it was a huge surprise for me to see a modern version in a larger size rug ! Every individual and fascinating motif is captured in random placement throughout, never repeated and always unique.
Traditionally these rugs were originally woven as a template or pattern for the carpet design and production of larger rugs, they were generally small in size so they could be clipped to the top of the loom for ready and consistent reference.
They did not show the entire design, but only the fundamental portion of the various larger decorative elements of the field and borders, along with selected individual motifs, which could then be expanded according to established symmetrical repetitions to produce the larger design.
It is likely they jealously guarded and highly sought after by rug weavers.
Very few handwoven sample rugs were made and used in Turkey, though their use was more prolific in Iran.
