This 1970s kilim, measuring 178 × 297 cm, is handwoven in wool on a cotton warp, showcasing a traditional Anatolian composition based on a grid of octagonal medallions filled with stylised star motifs. The rich, warm brown background sets the stage for a dynamic palette: vivid pink, saturated red, expressive blue, orange, cream, and black. The border features energetic zigzags and herringbone patterns in shades of blue, cream, and black, finished with a simple, sturdy binding. The flat, tightly woven structure and matte surface highlight both the crispness of the geometric patterns and the finesse of the craftsmanship. Proportions are harmonious, with medallions evenly distributed across the field, lending the rug a sense of rhythm and clarity. The piece is in excellent condition, with colours remaining vibrant and no visible stains, tears, or signs of heavy wear.This kilim resonates with the spirit of Anatolia in the 1970s: its geometry and saturated colours tell stories of both everyday life and festive occasions, echoing the enduring traditions of the region. Each medallion forms part of a rhythmic narrative, evoking the atmosphere of homes where textiles served as both ornament and symbol bearer. The matte surface gently diffuses light, making the rug a calm yet striking presence—inviting one to pause and view the world through the lens of traditional motifs.Such a kilim may be placed in a spacious living room on a light wooden floor, becoming the central focus of the arrangement. It would work well
