Old Vintage Esme Kilim Western Anatolian Turkish Carpet Cotton & Wool

About the Item

This is a Western Anatolian vintage Kilim from the Esme ( Eshme ) region a historic kilim production area, with a rare and beautiful color composition. Old kilims from this town come in many variations, but they all have a red base, dragon medallions, and fields filled with patterns, which are typical of kilims. Red is the defining color of this kilim, but it is a red that is close to a bluish-pink, and there are also beautiful purples, blues, grass greens, and skin-colored pinks. The white cotton gives a refreshing impression and increases the brightness of the kilim. In particular, some of the gradations of the purple that serve as accent colors are beautiful. The sharp gray also tightens them up, emphasizing the beauty of the pastels. The strong patterns are woven precisely and neatly, but these pale colors blow away the heaviness and give the impression of lightness. This is a wonderful thing that is due to the weaver's skill or unconscious sense. This strength and freshness coexist on one kilim.
