Once overlooked as utilitarian, low status items, … more colorful hand-knotted turkish kilim from the middle of the 20th century. professionally cleaned.
Once overlooked as utilitarian, low status items, Vintage & vintage Kilims are now prized as some of the most powerful and authentic weavings of the Middle East. Kilim is a Turkish word denoting Caucasus made in simple flat-woven or tapestry technique, in which the pattern is produced entirely by horizontal wefts that cover the vertical warps. This technique makes it very difficult to produce continuous vertical linear separations of color in the design, so Kilims often have a stepped effect. While the weaving quality of kilims can be fine, they tend to rely more on large-scale patterns with striking drawing and effects of color. less
