This handmade modernist kilim rug from Turkey, dating to the 1960s and measuring 145 × 253 cm, is flat-woven in wool on a cotton foundation. The central field is dominated by a saturated brick-red hue with a matte, subtly variegated tone, resulting from hand-dyeing. Both ends are accented by wide horizontal stripes in olive green, mustard yellow, muted pink, and black, arranged in a rhythmic, modernist sequence that breaks away from the traditional kilim convention. The weave is tight and regular, the texture slightly coarse yet even, with hand-bound edges providing a neat finish. The rug shows no significant signs of wear or damage and remains in excellent vintage condition, with only minimal, natural irregularities that attest to its handmade origin. Washed In Super Condition And Ready To Use.
This kilim gives voice to the 1960s—a decade in which the search for modernity and simplicity intertwined with Anatolia’s deep-rooted craft traditions. Its brick-red field evokes sunbaked earth, while the geometric stripes at each end recall the measured rhythm of modernist architecture. Subtle tonal shifts and organic nuances in the weave suggest that each centimeter tells a story of the artisan’s hand and the spirit of an era defined by restraint and material honesty.
The rug can be displayed in a spacious living room or bright dining area, where its crisp form and bold colors create a graphic focal point. It would work well in mid-century modern interiors, where it can be paired with light wood furniture, streamlined upholstered chairs, and minimalist accents. In a vintage collector’s setting, it is worth combining with textured ceramics and a period metal lamp to highlight the dialogue between tradition and modernism.
