Zili Flatweave In Anatolia, flatwoven rugs of this kind, with
a ribbed surface, are named ‘zili’ for their specific technique. The
example offered here was woven in one of the villages in the southern
Taurus Mountains; its seemingly archaic design of large offset hexagons,
each enclosing a small stepped polygon, is captivating. – Good condition,
damage to the kilim at the lower end.
