Medium Vintage Turkish Rugs, 5x8 to 6x9
Medium vintage rugs are the most versatile size in a home. They are large enough to anchor a bedroom or home office, and small enough to work in apartments and smaller living rooms. Every rug here is a single, handmade vintage Turkish piece with its own colors, wear and story.
What Counts as a Medium Rug Here
This collection includes vintage rugs about 4 ft 7 in to 7 ft wide and under 12 ft long, which covers the familiar 5x7, 5x8 and 6x9 range. Measurements are irregular because each rug was woven by hand, so every listing shows exact dimensions in feet and centimeters. Our rug size guide can help you check fit.
Where Medium Vintage Rugs Work Best
- Bedrooms: a 6x9 placed under the lower two-thirds of a full or queen bed leaves soft floor on both sides.
- Home offices: a 5x8 fits under a desk and chair with room for the chair to roll.
- Smaller living rooms: choose a rug wide enough for the front legs of the sofa to rest on it.
- Reading corners and nurseries: a medium rug defines the zone without filling the whole room.
Styles You Will Find
Medium sizes are available across vintage Oushak rugs, vintage kilims and distressed and faded rugs.
Caring for a Vintage Rug
- Use a rug pad to keep corners flat and prevent slipping.
- Vacuum with the beater bar switched off.
- Rotate the rug every six months for even wear and sun exposure.
- For deep cleaning, use a service that handles handmade wool rugs.
