This Turkish kilim from the 1960s is handwoven from wool and cotton, preserving the traditional flatweave structure characteristic of Anatolian craftsmanship. A warm beige serves as the base for horizontal bands in deep red, rich brown, olive green, and vibrant blue, while geometric motifs in mustard yellow, burnt orange, and white are integrated into the stripes, referencing local weaving traditions. The edges are finished with a decorative border in olive green and red, featuring zigzag and wave patterns, and the ends are neatly hemmed without fringe. The surface displays a subtly textured, matte finish with visible weft and warp lines, typical for hand-crafted textiles. Its rectangular proportions (151 × 240 cm) provide versatility, and the balanced palette ensures the rug attracts attention without overwhelming the space. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, with vivid colors and virtually no signs of wear. This kilim tells the story of 1960s Anatolia—a time when craftsmanship was woven into daily life, and the hues of local workshops mirrored the seasons and rhythm of village existence. The geometric motifs, arranged in a rhythmic stripe, evoke memories of folk tales passed through generations, each line and shade echoing tradition and the authenticity of rural simplicity. The matte surface and saturated colors reveal the steadiness of the artisan’s hand, while the overall composition testifies to the enduring strength of custom. The kilim can serve as the focal point of a living room, well-suited to bohemian spaces or eclectic collector’s interiors. It may
