About the Item

Antique Anatolian Kilim Runner with Stylised Saph Design Size: approx. 392 × 81 cm This striking antique Anatolian kilim runner features a bold and graphic stylised saph design, a motif traditionally associated with prayer rugs and symbolic of multiple prayer niches (mihrabs). The repeating stepped patterns in alternating colorsm, deep brown, ivory, green, and red—create a dynamic rhythm across the length of the kilim, enhanced by narrow horizontal stripes in complementary tones. Woven in flatweave technique, this piece exemplifies the geometric abstraction and vibrant natural dyes characteristic of Anatolian village weaving. The deliberate asymmetries and subtle irregularities add to its charm, underlining its authenticity as a handwoven kilim. With its impressive length of nearly 4 meters, this runner would have been woven for a specific architectural setting, possibly for use in a long corridor or communal space. Today, it serves not only as a functional textile but also as a collector’s piece of Anatolian folk art, carrying both decorative appeal and cultural significance.
