Jajim Flat-Weave

About the Item

Colorful midcentury Turkish Jajim also known as Jijim. With the Jijim weaving technique, different colored threads are applied between the weft and warp threads, on the reverse of the weave. It is often used to decorate a plain-weave object, or to create small ornamental motifs, that may be scattered or in series. The ground-weave underneath shows through, giving the impression of an embroidered motif and it is often used to fill areas of negative space. Bristle wefts are often used to create a textured effect on bags, mats and quilts.

    Located in New York, NY
    Vintage Turkish Jajim flat-weave rug. With this style of Jajim weaving different colored threads are woven between the warp and wefts The Jajim (cecim) technique is followed in Turkey, Persia and the Caucasus and consists of a plain weave (equal warps and wefts) ground with an added (supplementary) weft pattern. The wefts are usually discontinuous, cut off on the verso (back). The pattern develops as the ground is woven on the loom and not added afterwards as on an embroidered rug. It is easier to make repeating geometric patterns of squares, lozenges, diamonds, stepped diagonal lines and areas of plain color. Sometimes Jajim are in two pieces, stitched together along one long side, depending on the width of the loom. The Jajim technique seems to go back well into the 19th century in Turkey, but, since the flatweaves are generally made for household use and tossed out when worn, few early antique examples...
