Description from the seller

A Kurdish kilim with a strong presence, about 130 years old, originating from Çankırı in Central Anatolia. Considering its age, it is in excellent condition. The kilim is adorned with archaic symbols. The symbol repeated three times in the rows, in white, blue and reddish-brown on a turquoise background, is called 'elibelinde' (hand on the hip) and stands for the wish to have children. The meaning of most of the other symbols has fallen into oblivion. For the radiant white, cotton has been deliberately used. For enthusiasts and collectors.
