Handwoven in Turkey with timeless geometric artistry, this vintage Oushak kilim brings a serene, minimalist tribal presence to modern farmhouse interiors. Ships fast from Turkey with no extra import costs for U.S. buyers. Woven with natural wool and plant-based dyes, its strong linear motifs and calm sand-beige field create an inviting, grounded warmth that feels both rustic and refined.
Woven in the 1980s by skilled Oushak artisans, this rare kilim carries echoes of pre-Islamic Seljuk aesthetics — simplified star and hook motifs symbolizing protection and unity. The soft tonal balance and generous proportions make it ideal for anchoring open living rooms, dining areas, or relaxed modern kitchens while adding a layer of cultural depth. Each thread reflects the continuity of Anatolia’s textile heritage and the maker’s disciplined geometry, perfectly bridging old-world craftsmanship with today’s interiors.

What Is a Turkish Kilim?
