Heritage & Provenance:
This vibrant, hand-woven Turkish Kilim was acquired directly from an international exchange student named Lena in the early 1990s. The piece was hand-carried from Turkey by her father specifically for her. It has remained in the possession of the original owner ever since, ensuring a documented, one-owner history.
Artistry & Construction:
• Origin: Authentic Turkish flat-weave (Kilim).
• Technique: Entirely hand-woven using traditional methods with intricate geometric motifs.
• Dimensions: Approximately 40" x 65".
• Material: High-quality natural fibers; lightweight and ideal as a Statement Wall Hanging.
Condition & Disclosure (Please Read):
While the structural integrity is excellent, it is sold in "as-found" estate condition.
• Presence of Dog Hair: The item has been stored in a home with a dog; hair is present on the fibers.
• Surface Stains: There are visible surface stains that require professional attention.
• Cleaning Credit: Professional cleaning is left to the buyer to avoid damage from improper household techniques.
Pricing Strategy:
Originally valued at $3100, the price is reduced to account for the professional cleaning required. This allows the new owner to use their preferred professional conservator while securing a significant discount on a high-value textile.
Versatile Display Options:
Its lightweight construction makes it a perfect candidate for mounting as Textile Art in a hallway, office, or above a headboard. Its vibrant patterns and hand-carried history make it a true conversation piece.
