12'3" x 20'6" (373cm x 625cm) Turkey, Southeast Anatolia: Mid-20th Century Flat-weave (kilim): goat hair
$ on request
A very large tribal flat-weave from Southeastern Turkey, woven with wool and goat hair in multicolored vertical bands. A kilim like this would have been used as a utilitarian, everyday floor cover in the weaver's household. Despite its humble origins, this is a very appealing piece with authentic simplicity.
