Central anatolia, Cappadocia
"Kilims from Cappadocia and its surrounding areas were traditionally woven by local women. This tradition has been a skill and a form of cultural expression passed down from mother to daughter.
The vibrant colors were usually obtained from natural, natural dyes found in the region.
Some kilims were specially woven at different stages of life: before marriage, during marriage for children, and even for funerals, to be donated to the mosque. The striped patterns are frequently seen in kilims and generally symbolize simplicity, fluidity, or abundance (fertility). The craft of making kilims is considered more than just a skill; it is a living history that reflects the weaver's life story, culture, and beliefs."
