The art of Kilim
A specialist in kilims since the early 1970s, the TRIFF gallery has largely contributed to making these weavings known in France and Europe. Since its creation, the gallery has always favored the criteria of quality, authenticity, aesthetics and originality for the choice of its kilims.

Kilim Circa 1940 from center of Turkey
Dense weaving and precise pattern - rare piece in this size
Kilims from the Şarkişla region are woven with medium-weight wools and the weave is often quite soft.
The most common motifs in this region are hexagonal medallions decorated on the inside. Star motifs are less common.
Generally, the background is a dense red, and the colors used are sky blue or gray, brown, yellow ochre, orange and green.
Weaving: Women learned the art of kilim weaving from their mothers or grandmothers. Kilims were woven by hand, using hand-spun wool, which they dyed as they went along.
Patterns and colors: Each region had its own way of spinning wool, its own patterns and its own palette of colors.
These antique kilims were intended for domestic use.
They were woven without drawing boards, which adds a real personal touch and makes them unique pieces.
Their beauty depends on the way the weaver has interpreted the motifs and combined the colors.
That's why we choose our kilims one by one, to select only the most beautiful.
