This Turkish kilim from the 1970s exemplifies Anatolian craftsmanship rooted in local tradition. Handwoven from wool and cotton, it features a flatweave construction with no pile, characteristic of classic kilims. The rectangular format, measuring 150 × 248 cm, showcases balanced proportions highlighted by a rhythmic sequence of geometric stripes: a muted brown ground is interspersed with alternating lines in olive green, deep red, mustard yellow, black, and slate grey. Two horizontal bands with traditional Anatolian ornamentation on a yellow background introduce abstract, flame-like motifs in red, blue, and green. The finish is matte, the surface flat and slightly coarse, and short fringes at both ends frame the composition in a rustic vintage spirit. The rug remains in excellent condition, with no visible stains, wear, or damage, showing only minimal signs of use. This kilim carries echoes of 1970s Anatolia, where pattern and color conveyed local customs and the emotions of everyday life. The matte finish and tactile flatness evoke rooms where the rug was not merely decoration but a part of daily ritual—witness to gatherings, laughter, and quiet moments. Earthy tones and warm contrasts speak of proximity to nature, while the decorated bands reference old symbolism—as if the kilim softly recounts stories woven into its fibers. The kilim may be placed in a living room on wooden or concrete flooring, where its pattern accentuates the rhythm of the space. It can be paired with simple wooden furniture or modern pieces with raw finishes, allowing the geometric design and colors to stand out. It also fits well in eclectic interiors, among collectible objects, textiles, and ceramics. It may serve
