Heinrich Kirchheim, Hali Publications Ltd, 1993 nr.178\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is an unusual border drawing, medallion carpet design 16th-century carpet from the Konya region, Central Anatolia area, Turkey. A detail in the border drawing is so unusual that it must be mentioned: it forms an almost closed circle that leaves a small opening to one side. Either it can be a strongly curled leaf or a shell which is often given an amuletic function in rural textiles. Among specialists, Anatolian carpets and kilims are believed to record symbols of ancient values and ideas. This tradition dates back several millennia and was only displaced during the industrial age. The Anatolian kilim design tradition probably owes its lucky survival to the fact that pile-woven carpets look more precious and would already have had a higher prestige value several millennia ago. Kilim weaving was, therefore, able to survive undisturbed within an intact cultural context for a long period of time. The design of this rug is interpreted with floral borders and soft colors are chosen for this rug.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor summary:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 colors in total, most used 4 colors are;\u003cul\u003e \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDusty Turquoise \u003c\/strong\u003e 340 (Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo - Walnut Husk)\u003c\/li\u003e \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCongo Pink \u003c\/strong\u003e 306 (Madder Root)\u003c\/li\u003e \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWax Flower\u003c\/strong\u003e 530 (Spurge - Madder Root - Reseda Luteola)\u003c\/li\u003e \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaramel \u003c\/strong\u003e 537 (Tea)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ararat Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737882460456,"sku":"ART00410","price":2700.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/7780\/8936\/files\/id_ART00410_kazak_V-scaled-e1662005074150.jpg?v=1776847496","url":"https:\/\/www.araratrugs.com\/products\/anatolian-medallion-carpet-1","provider":"Ararat Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
