11143 Vintage Mut Turkish Zili Kilim Rug 198x347cm (6.6 x 11.4½ft)

Large size Turkish Kilim Rug handwoven in the Mut region of Southern Turkey (they are also known as Kelims). This large traditional kilim is woven using zili flat weave technique - we love the very different colour combination in this one with its gorgeous oranges, ochres, reds and bright blue highlights. This rug measures approximately 198x347cm (6.6 x 11.4½ft) excluding tassels.

These flat woven rugs were originally made by the migratory Taurus Yoruks who were of Central Asian Turkic origin. Today the Yoruks lead a semi-nomadic way of life in the southern Taurus mountain region of Anatolia, moving between summer and winter pastures where they set up their encampments (Yayla).  Mut Kilims are not generally woven for export but are woven for the own use of the weaver. See more about Rug Motifs, Symbols & Meaning here.
