A stunning early Kilim from Central Anatolia distinguished by a rare apricot background, by a spectacular array of early colors including aubergine and by a bottom compartment decorated by stylized carnations (or Mother Goddess fertility figures from the Neolithic?). The very fine weave and the use of a very silky quality of wool allows for the joy of color to flow, this being the chief characterizing trait of early Central Anatolian weavings. A true masterpiece, professionally mounted on a cotton backing with velcro and ready for display.
