Description from the seller

Mut is a town in the Taurus Mountains, located in an important pass from Konya to the Southeastern Mediterranean coast. This nomad kilim is 75 years young, made of pure wool and natural wool dyes in cheerful colors. Since the Middle Ages, nomads from Turkmenistan have settled in this area. The colors and symbols in Mut kilims still show many similarities to Turkmen carpets. The kilim makes an exuberant impression due to the abundance of symbols. Among other things, the wish to marry, protection of marriage and family life, stars as a wish for happiness and well-being and various protective symbols against the evil eye (gossip and curses) and against misfortune. The maker did not adhere strictly to the basic kilim shape. Therefore it is not rectangular and completely flat. A celebration for every interior. Most suitable for on the wall or draped over a sofa. On the floor, preferably in a spot where not much is walked on.
