A finely woven antique Kilim from Northeastern Turkey with a compartment design that is often seen in larger Kilims from this region. With its subtle and sophisticated color palette and delicate details, this was clearly a precious item in the weaver's household, intended for display rather than everyday use. It has survived in a remarkable state of preservation.
Condition & Remarks
