Antique KILIM Stylish Runner Rug 10'7'' X 5'7''

This is a Southern Anatolian Antique Kilim from the Malatya region with a rare and beautiful color composition. It was originally a kilim with two halves, but this is one half.

Malatya is a town built on one main street that continues for several miles. It is situated in the Tohmasuyu River basin which is encircled by the high peaks of the eastern Taurus Mountains.

In Roman times it was important as a garrison town on the eastern frontier, and the settlement came under Ottoman rule in the early fifteenth century. Considering the number of kilims woven in this region there is a surprising lack of diversity in design, especially in the larger kilims; this is possibly a direct result of the Kurdish tribal tradition of weaving only one type of design.
