Vintage Malatya Kilim Rug, 86 x 134 cm ≈ 2.1 x 4.5 ft

This authentic vintage kilim was woven 60–70 years ago in Malatya, a cultural hub in Eastern Anatolia known for its distinctive weaving traditions. Characterized by bold diamond motifs arranged in vertical symmetry, this rug tells stories of protection, abundance, and tribal identity.

The rich tones—deep reds, forest greens, indigo blues, and creamy whites—are naturally dyed and deeply saturated, echoing the strong contrasts of Malatya’s mountainous terrain and seasonal rhythms. This kilim was most likely woven as a dowry piece or a treasured family heirloom, made to endure both time and meaning.

Its medium size makes it versatile for entryways, bedrooms, or even as a wall hanging. Made from 100% hand-spun wool, it brings texture, authenticity, and a legacy of craftsmanship into any living space.
