This dynamic vintage Cicim kilim is a bold expression of Anatolian tribal weaving, featuring rhythmic zigzag patterns rendered in vivid tones of crimson, saffron, rose, and ivory against a deep, grounding background. Handwoven using the Cicim technique where extra weft threads are wrapped to create raised, embroidery-like textures this piece offers both visual energy and tactile richness.

The vertical zigzag bands symbolize movement and protection in Anatolian folklore, while the intricate border detailing adds balance and refinement. Its elongated format and vibrant palette make it ideal as a hallway runner, wall tapestry, or gallery textile.
