Description
English: Composed of two panels and woven on a white cotton warp, this kilim shows a strikingly idiosyncratic design. It is a masterpiece of abstract graphic effect. The centre of the field is a wide empty space into which eighteen blue bars, their ends notched in a triangular shape, protrude from both sides. They appear like the keys of a piano. The bars are outlined in fine white and red lines. Instead of a border, the sides are framed by an inconspicuous serrated design, and both ends terminate in a blue band. – According to Hirsch, the kilim was woven by Yürüks of the Ivrinde tribe in the province of Manisa. – Slight signs of age and wear, minor rewoven sections, several stains.
