Presenting an exquisite piece of heritage, this antique Turkish kilim rug adorned with traditional embroideries known as cicim showcases the artisanal mastery of nomadic Turkish craftsmen dating back to the 1950s. Employing the intricate double-wing technique, this rug reflects the ingenious adaptation of nomadic life, where large looms were impractical due to constant travel. Meticulously crafted in two parts and seamlessly stitched together, as evidenced in the accompanying images, this rug boasts a captivating geometric motif adorning its entirety.
