A Siirt Mohair Kilim

183 x 132 cm 6 x 4,3 ft

Eastern Anatolia Beginning 20th ct. These blankets "siirt battaniyesi" woven with the natural color silky mohair wool of the Angora goats can be mainly attributed to the semi-nomadic Yuruk tribes close to the town Siirt. The archaic and reduced patterns give the tribal blankets a very minimalist look. They can be used also as  bed through or a very modern looking wall hanging.
