AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A kilim just over 100 years old in warm tones. Baklava is the name for the diamond pattern and is a symbol of luck. This kilim comes from the bridal chest. It was only taken out of the chest to be sold in times of adversity— a kind of insurance avant la lettre. This explains the good condition of the weave and its vivid colors. The sunlight plays with the pastel colors throughout the day. Suitable to drape over the sofa, hang on the wall, or place on the floor where it is walked on less intensively.
