BAKHTIARI Vintage Kilim 253x110m
Woven Memory from Anatolia
This hand-woven vintage kilim is unique – born from the quiet strength of Anatolian women who translated their world into patterns. Made from 100% hand-spun sheep's wool (partially combined with cotton or goat hair), each rug carries its own story – of protection, beauty, and connection.
Kilim Symbols & Their Meanings
The patterns and motifs in our kilims come from a centuries-old symbolic language, deeply rooted in Anatolian culture. Common symbols include:
- Göz (Eye): Protection, clarity, warding off evil
- Su Yolu (Watercourse): Flow of life, change, renewal
- Elibelinde: Feminine power, fertility, honesty
- Kurt Ağızı: Vigilance, protection from all directions
- Küpe: Love, harmonious relationships
- Bukağı: Responsibility, family cohesion
These symbols make the rug a silent bearer of meaning – palpable for all who inhabit it.
