Vintage Tribal Geometric Wool Rug (124 x 75 cm) – Hand-Knotted Red & Indigo Diamond Lattice, Small Area Rug

This bold vintage tribal piece is all about graphic geometry: a repeating diamond lattice in saturated red and deep indigo, outlined with strong black “path” lines, then punctuated by ivory, cross-like medallions. The narrow floral/rosette guard border frames the field cleanly, giving it that classic nomadic look that works equally well in modern, boho, eclectic, and maximalist spaces.

From the close-ups and the folded-back shots, this is a pile rug (not flatweave) with handmade structure—wool pile and a traditional foundation with visible end fringes. The wool has that slightly springy, dense feel typical of tribal work, and the color variations (subtle abrash) plus tiny asymmetries in the drawing are exactly what collectors like—each line shows the weaver’s hand rather than a machine-perfect repeat.

Care Instructions
Vacuum gently on low suction (avoid beater bar). Rotate every few months for even wear. Spot clean with cold water and a small amount of wool-safe soap; blot—don’t scrub. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve the reds and indigos. For deep cleaning, use a professional rug wash (not steam cleaning).

This is the kind of small tribal rug that instantly “finishes” a space—strong pattern from a distance, satisfying texture up close, and durable enough for real-life use. If you want a compact, authentic handmade accent with serious color impact, this one delivers.
