Description from the seller

Colorful Cossack rug from northwest Turkey. Since the 11th century, Cossacks, originally from the Caucasus, have settled in northwest Turkey. Their rugs and kilims still retain the colors and motifs of their original home. The tree of life represents the desire for a long and happy life. The family symbol is depicted in the center of the tree. Branches consist of ram's horns, symbols of masculine strength and protection. The four corners of the inner field depict dragon paw prints. The dragon represents the gatekeeper who lets in good and keeps out evil. This is a decorative, cheerful rug for the floor, wall, or draped over a sofa.
