11914 Turkish Denizli Cal Vintage Kilim Rug 167x306cm (5.5½ x 10.0½ft)

Vintage village made original, traditional Turkish Cal Kilim Rug. This is an original and authentic piece hand-woven in wool on cotton using the slit weave technique and measuring approx 167x306cm (5.5½ x 10.0½ft) excluding any tassels. This Cal rug from Turkey is a one of a kind piece and semi-antique - we love the lovely washed out reds and that gorgeous green together with the cicim weave embellished motifs found in this rug. See more about Rug Motifs, Symbols & Meaning here.

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.
