Unlike standard flat-weaves, this piece carries the soulful essence of Anatolian "Cicim" craft, making it both structurally durable and visually layered.

Hailing from the Sivrihisar region of Central Anatolia, this textile reflects a weaving heritage known for its intricate "Cicim" (brocade) precision. Sivrihisar weavers are celebrated for adding secondary weft threads to the foundation, creating a refined, embroidery-like effect that stands out in relief. This 1960s piece represents a timeless transition from village utility to a sophisticated, three-dimensional interior accent.
