This vintage Esme kilim features a beautiful palette of pastel colours. The whole field is filled with serrated medallions, with no other secondary design, therefore, occupying completely the surface of the kilim. Subtle abrash—natural variations of shade within a single tone—adds even more movement and depth to the composition.
Notably, the design omits borders, allowing the medallions to flow seamlessly beyond the edges of the kilim, giving the impression of an endless, expanding pattern.
Material: 100% hand-spun sheep wool
Size: 210×150 cms cms
Origin: Esme, Turkey
Date of weaving: 1980s
Large Esme kilims often feature hexagonal medallions, either arranged in pairs or woven singly as central motifs, with smaller infill designs decorating the rest of the field. The coloring of Esme kilims is similar to that of Denizli, but a little softer: red and pink, purple and blue that fade to grey, as well as black orange and some yellow. Both use slitweave,with médium-to fine-spun wool and often cotton is used for the warps. Esme kilims have detailed design and a fine quality of weaving.
