Antique Central Anatolian Kilim Fragment – 150 Years Old

This striking Central Anatolian kilim fragment comes from a much larger antique rug and is estimated to be around 150 years old. It is a rare surviving section that beautifully represents the depth, balance, and craftsmanship of traditional Anatolian weaving.

The color palette is exceptional. All colors are created with natural root dyes, resulting in rich earthy reds, soft browns, muted blues, and warm neutral tones. The harmony and saturation of the colors remain remarkably strong, reflecting both the quality of the dyes and the age of the piece.

As an authentic antique fragment, the textile shows visible wear consistent with its age. These signs of time add character and honesty, without diminishing the overall visual impact. The piece remains highly decorative and visually powerful.

This kilim fragment can be:

backed with fabric and used as wall art
framed as a textile artwork
preserved as part of a textile or rug collection
A soulful and historically meaningful piece, valued for its age, natural dyes, and authentic condition.
