Vintage Karaja Rug Mat with central hook and latch medallion, colorful geometric floral pattern

Small rug, big presence

A compact vintage Karaja that greets the room with brick red warmth and denim blue sparks.

Rooms remember

A 1960s whisper underfoot

Karaja character, pocket size

Entry corners and bedside edges often feel unfinished—spaces you pass a dozen times a day without a moment of welcome. The 2x3 Vintage Karaja Rug Mat sets a grounded note with its central medallion and mirrored motifs, adding color where floors go quiet. Fully secured sides and ends mean the piece feels assured, not fragile. Recently professionally cleaned, it’s ready to lay down and live with.

Color that anchors

Brick and cherry reds mingle with ivory, denim, rose, and navy, bringing depth to pale wood and painted floors alike. At 2'1" x 2'10", it slips naturally by a doorway, sink, or reading chair without crowding. Mostly even pile height across invites everyday use. A real vintage accent that looks considered, not contrived.

For the collector at home

Someone who wants a hand knotted Persian Karaja from the 1960s with saturated reds and geometric blossoms in a true mat size.

Place and live

Lay it at the entry, next to the bed, or in front of a kitchen sink to warm a daily route with color and pattern.
