Handwoven by skilled women artisans, this mid-century tribal cecim rug is an exquisite testament to time-honored techniques. Its captivating lozenge, or diamond, patterns create a mesmerizing mosaic effect, brought to life through the intricate cecim weaving method.

The harmonious interplay of these colors exudes sophistication and versatility, making it a perfect complement to a variety of interior styles. Whether your space reflects the cozy warmth of rustic and farmhouse décor, the clean lines of Scandinavian design, or the eclectic charm of vintage French, traditional, or boho-chic aesthetics, this rug will blend seamlessly.

Adding to its allure, the kilim boasts magnificent multiple borders that further enhance the canvas, creating a striking frame that highlights its intricate patterns and vivid colors. This unique framing effect adds depth and definition, perfect for anchoring a seating arrangement or grounding an open-plan layout.
