Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug, Country of Origin: Turkey, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century– The Turkish are known worldwide for the stunning artistry of their rug makers. Kilims are created using a simple weaving technique that uses only the vertical and horizontal axes of the loom; patterns thus tend to be of a larger scale and rely on angular, stepped, and crenelated designs. This particular rug typifies the Kilim style native to Anatolia – a flat weave and bold, geometric pattern that makes an impactful statement. The contrast between the rich red and deep black makes this rug an eye-catching, standout centerpiece. The softer tones of the floral design give this rug an added element of depth.
