A joyful vintage Kepsut cicim kilim covered in an all-over lattice of olive-gold lines, each cell holding a small stepped diamond in turquoise, magenta, peach, violet, navy, burgundy or ivory on a soft grey ground. A narrow end band of multicolour ram’s horn and tree motifs finishes the design.
The Kepsut kilim tradition
Kepsut is a small district of Balıkesir in north-western Turkey, home to Yörük and village weavers. Its cicim kilims are known for dense, raised brocade over a flatweave base and cheerful repeating motifs in many colours.
Where it works
At 183 × 238 cm, this kilim suits a living room seating area, a bedroom or a study. Its playful multicolour lattice brings warmth to neutral rooms and works well in bohemian and eclectic interiors.
Care
Vacuum regularly without the beater bar, rotate every few months for even wear, and blot spills straight away with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning, we recommend a professional rug cleaner.
