Vintage Old Chuval Kilim Cuval Rug Nomadic Anatolian Natural Turkish Carpet
About the Item
This is a beautifully detailed old Chuval kilim, featuring a bold, three-dimensional texture and precise geometric patterns. Originally used by nomadic tribes as a storage bag for transporting grains and household items during migration, chuvals were also symbols of wealth. As such, they were often adorned with elaborate decorations and woven in vivid, eye-catching colors.
This particular piece was once used for that functional purpose, yet the decoration is so exquisite that it feels almost too beautiful to have served as a utility item.
Woven with extremely fine threads, the weave is dense and intricate, showcasing a high level of craftsmanship. The jijim embroidery is delicately and evenly applied, creating a rhythmic and refined visual effect.
The black ground weave sets off the red and yellow yarns beautifully, giving the patterns a strong sense of depth. The yellow, in particular, has a muted luster, reminiscent of aged brass or copper.
Though modest in size and nearly square in shape, this kilim has a commanding presence—small in scale but rich in character and impact.

We are aware that the way to achieve this goal and carry this priceless art and culture to the future depends on a lot of work with all our people every day while adhering to our core values.
For us, art is meaningful in the sense that it brings together various cultures around the world. It is an honor for us that oriental carpet art and culture have been instrumental in this for centuries and that we are a part of this business.
We are tirelessly keeping an eye on auction house information around the world about carpets. New York's Metropolitan, London's Victoria & Albert Museums, and other famous art museums, as well as small specialized museums that house private collections, and books about oriental carpets to collect information on outstanding carpet designs and patterns from around the world. It's our Self-improving and Self-developing culture.
As Turkish Culture of Hospitality, the Kurdish Culture of Generosity, and as Japanese Culture of Business Punctuality; are the most important values that this multicultural background has taught and bequeathed to us. It is essential and valuable for us that you feel this feeling not only by looking at our oriental carpets but from the moment you contact us.
