About the Item

A mid-20th century narrow and long Turkish Kilim runner featuring an ivory colored ground, circa mid-20th century, measures: 2'2" x 21'9" Kilims, primarily refer to a type of flat-woven rug that was produced without knotted pile. Since this is one of the oldest methods of rug production, it is considered to be Primitive compared to Oriental & Traditional knotted rugs. Comprised of simple interlocking strands of wool, they are very durable, decorative and used for many purposes. Some of these uses include, clothing, shelter, storage, floor coverings, textile, throw pieces and pillows Once overlooked as utilitarian, low status items, antique and vintage Kilims are now prized as some of the most powerful and authentic weavings of the Middle East. Kilim is a Turkish word denoting Caucasus made in simple flat-woven or tapestry technique, in which the pattern is produced entirely by horizontal wefts that cover the vertical warps. This technique makes it very difficult to produce continuous vertical linear separations of color in the design, so Kilims often have a stepped effect. While the weaving quality of kilims can be fine, they tend to rely more on large-scale patterns with striking drawing and effects of color. The most well-known Kilims are those of Turkey, which are varied in type and effect, but Caucasian and Persian Kilim rugs are also appreciated nowadays for their color and high technical skill. Given their thinner, supple structure, Kilim rugs are usable not only as decorative floor covering, but also as wall hangings and on furniture or bed coverlets as well.
