Dating back to the 1950s, this is more than just a rug—it’s a piece of woven cultural heritage.

This unique flatweave was hand-woven by villagers for personal use as part of a trousseau (Çeyiz), a tradition that ensures the finest materials and most meticulous effort went into its creation. The result is a piece exhibiting extremely fine and high-quality craftsmanship rarely seen in modern weaves.

The design is a striking and sophisticated array of vibrant geometric medallions and tribal motifs. The dominant palette of rich red, saffron yellow, and contrasting black and cool gray is considered rare in this specific combination, making it a truly one-of-a-kind statement piece for collectors and interior designers alike.

Add an authentic touch of Mid-Century style, Bohemian warmth, or Tribal sophistication to your living room, bedroom, or entryway. It functions beautifully as a floor covering or as compelling textile wall art.

Description of Colors
The kilim features a powerful and expertly balanced color scheme:
Deep Red/Rust: This is the primary background color, providing a warm, earthy foundation. In Anatolian culture, red often symbolizes happiness, vitality, and good fortune.
Saffron Yellow/Gold: Used prominently in the central geometric diamonds, this color provides a vivid contrast to the red. It traditionally symbolizes light, wealth, and spiritual enlightenment.
Black: Used for strong outlines and primary motifs, the black anchors the design and dramatically heightens the vibrancy of the surrounding colors. It often represents protection from the evil eye or deep water.
Soft Gray/Lavender: Found primarily in the borders and as secondary accents, the gray adds a sophisticated, cooling element that balances the intense warmth of the red and yellow.
Orange/Rust Tones: Used to transition and highlight smaller geometric details within the main motifs, adding depth and complexity to the overall pattern.
