Handwoven in a wool flatweave, originating circa 1950-1960, this 6x14 vintage Turkish gallery runner kilim is an excellent example of the slit weave and is dense with colors that have aged beautifully for its period.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft may admire the geometric patterns in the large-sized medallion and open field style, with meanders of several borders around. It’s clearly a work of the best dye, with fine detail and the vibrant, saturated colors among the many personal elements that give Kilims their beauty and irreplaceable old-world charm. Connoisseurs may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period. It’s a fine play of rustic geometric motifs and stripes in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and its size offers vast design applications, making it well suited to other decorative purposes.
Condition:
This vintage Turkish runner kilim enjoys great condition for its age and origin. It is a very collectible piece and is ready for the floor.
