Vintage Turkish Tribal Flatweave Carpet
About the Item
70468 Vintage Turkish Kilim Rug, 04'02 x 10'05. Turkish tribal kilim rugs are traditional, flat-woven textiles made by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes in Turkey, characterized by their geometric patterns, bold colors, and symbolic motifs. Made primarily from wool using a slit-weave technique, these durable rugs originate from regions like Anatolia, the Aegean, and Southeastern Turkey. Kilims hold cultural significance, often reflecting the weaver's personal stories and tribal heritage. Today, they are valued for their beauty and craftsmanship, serving as both practical items and artistic home décor pieces, with antique and vintage kilims being highly sought after by collectors.
Tribal enchantment meets Anatolian charm in this handwoven wool vintage Turkish kilim rug runner. The navy blue field sets the stage with an allover pattern of fertility symbols. The combined motifs of "hands on hips" and "ram's horn" symbolize the union of a man and a woman in Anatolian culture, representing fertility. This pattern includes two 'elibelinde' motifs for the female, two 'kocboynuzu' motifs for the male, and an eye motif for protection against the evil eye.
Along the heart of the composition are five stepped medallions adorned with repeating bird motifs. The "bird" motif in Anatolian culture symbolizes happiness, joy, and love, and also represents the soul of the departed, anticipation of news, and longing. It embodies power and strength, serving as an emblem for various states founded in Anatolia.
The piece is framed with a series of borders embellished with protection symbols representing the male's presence. These symbols add to the rug's intricate design and cultural significance, making it a beautiful and meaningful addition to any space.
