Antique Turkish Transitional Red and Blue Wool Kilim by Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Originating from Turkey in 1920, this antique transitional wool kilim rug features a distinct combination of rich and whimsical colorways to complement its cultural symbolism. Flat-woven in tight, durable wool, the methodical rows throughout the geometric field design employ a unique diagonal orientation to repeating crimson red, frost blue, and chilling white depictions of a cross between the evil eye and pitrack Burdock plant; believed to ward off malevolence and represent a plentiful bounty respectively. The innermost wrapping border bears key geometric depictions resembling dowry chests and bridal hair bands symbolizing a prosperous marriage, while the equally intricate, mirrored vertical borders depict symbols of fertility complementing the central theme of the piece.
