Turkish Kilims


 

The Turks have produced the largest kilims, usually in two narrow pieces joined, as well as small ones and a multitude of prayer kilims. As a prayer rug, which is carried about with the worshiper, the light and extremely flexible kilim offers obvious advantages. In Turkish kilims, cotton is often used for the white areas, and small details may be brocaded. The kilims of the southern Balkans began as close copies of Anatolian types but have gradually developed into individual styles, such as the black, red, and white kilims of Pirot. In Romania, also, there are varied local fashions, progressively less Oriental in colour and pattern as the distance from Turkey increases. The name kilim is also given to a variety of brocaded, embroidered, warp-faced, and other flat-woven rugs and bags

 

Turkish Kilim

Here again we question: Are kilims just floor coverings? No, some are hangings, some are bench or divan covering, etc., etc. Once more a trusted source of information turns out to be at least a bit misleading.

 

There are other definitions to be found, some much less accurate, others quaint or curious, but their very profusion shows that more and more people are interested in our favorite subject, the kilim. Not many years ago the word 'kilim' wasn't even listed in an English dictionary or encyclopedia! What's more, even today your computer spell-check tool probably doesn't recognize kilim as a legitimate word. Don't worry, it is.

 

Having researched the matter in some detail in numerous sources we have arrived at the following definition:

 

Kilim, a word of Turkish origin, denotes a pile less textile of many uses produced by one of several flat weaving techniques that have a common or closely related heritage and are practiced in the geographical area that includes parts of North Africa, the Balkans, Turkey (Anatolia and Thrace), the Caucasus, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Central Asia and China.

 

We believe this definition to be correct though incomplete, because, as all kilim lovers know, no words can convey the romance of the kilim. We try to fill this void by providing in these pages as much detail as possible about the traditions, culture and heritage of kilim-making to make the romance live - and we hope you enjoy it.

Kilims are flat weave rugs originally produced in a village or tribal environment. The designs of kilims tend to be geometric often incorporating various symbolic motifs. A prominent characteristic of kilim rugs is the slits along the warp of the rug wherever there is a change of color. Kilims were used to make many functional things such as storage bags, salt bags, grain bags, saddle blankets, pillows, even cradles . Kilims were also woven as treasures to be dowry pieces or to mark the birth of a child. These were saved or used only on special occasions.
