Curator's Notes

Motifs

An interplay of repeating medallions fill out the field
A hexagonal structure, also referred to as a lozenge, represents the female form and fertility
Triangular amulets guard against evil spirits and malintent
A classic design, diamond medallions create a dynamic interplay of sub-symmetries and geometric shapes

Region of Origin

Mut is a seaside town in southern Turkey known for nomadic goat hair kilims with geometric designs hand embroidered in wool yarn.

Material Details

Goat hair is longer in fiber length and stiffer than sheep's wool. In kilims, it is woven into a durable flatweave with intricate designs hand embroidered on top with wool yarn.
