The Cicim technique is considered the aristocracy of Turkish flat weaving, and this 120 x 168 cm piece masterfully demonstrates this. Crafted with a discontinuous weave, it creates subtle reliefs impossible to reproduce industrially. The wool has been hand-spun using a traditional spinning wheel, developing intentional irregularities that add uniqueness. Only around 200 artisans in Anatolia have fully mastered this technique, which requires 15 years of apprenticeship.

The chromatic blocks are woven independently and joined with millimetric precision, creating tactile textures that invite contemplation. Like the historic pieces in Istanbul's Carpet Museum, it demonstrates that refined rusticity is the most authentic form of textile luxury.

Handwoven rugs and kilims can show wear over time. However, contrary to popular belief, this enhances the quality of the rugs and kilims. Handwoven pieces that show signs of use are durable and increase in value over the years. Furthermore, handwoven rugs with a modified appearance can add a unique touch to any room.
