This is an embroidered kilim from the 1930s. It uses a technique called "smack weave," where the embroidery is inserted on top of the base weave. Due to the unique weave, this kilim is slightly thicker than others, making it suitable for use on the floor. The base color is also unusual, a reddish-salmon pink. It feels soft to the touch and has been cleaned. The unique border features motifs of varying sizes and slight distortions, which are charming characteristics of handmade items, making it recommended for kilim enthusiasts.
