The term "Kandilli" refers not to a specific type or brand of carpet, but to the "kandil motif" frequently encountered in Kırşehir and Mucur carpets. The application of this motif to carpets has become a widespread tradition, particularly on prayer rugs, due to the influence of religions (Christianity and Islam). This motif, symbolizing the kandil, a luminous instrument hung on the altar of prayer rugs, represents the light and illumination of God. In addition to the kandil motif, Mucur carpets also feature small navel motifs known locally as "headgear," symbolic figures such as "hands and feet," and traditional motifs such as "hands on hips." The motifs used in Mucur carpets are not merely decorative elements; they are symbols that reflect the region's beliefs, stories, and cultural identity. These carpets are like written documents passed down from generation to generation. Size ; 98 x 308 cm Central anatolia, Mucur (Cappadocia)
