11242 Vintage Turkish Cal Kilim Rug 88x112cm (2.10½ x 3.8ft)

Village made original, traditional vintage Turkish Cal Kilim Rug. This is an original and authentic piece hand-woven in wool using the slit weave technique and measuring approx 88x112cm (2.10½ x 3.8ft) excluding any tassels. This Cal rug from Turkey is a one of a kind piece and semi-antique - we love the central medallion together with the floating motifs in the field - this kilim has the lovely autumnal colours that Cal kilims are renowned for.

Cal is a small town north-east of Denizli known for weaving both flat-woven and pile knotted rugs although not many rugs are now made in this area. Kilims from the Cal region are quite unusual and have interesting geometric patterns and colours such as burnt orange, terracottas and blues. Cal Kilims have their own unusual designs, commonly having a central medallion on a fairly open ground but there can be exceptions to this.
