Overview
Carpet is a gift of Turkish people to world civilization. Knotted kilim, the oldest examples of which can be found in Central Asia, where the Turks live, is an art discovered, developed and presented to the world by the Turks. The Turks invented the carpet using lamb's wool, which was abundant in order to protect itself from the cold of the Central Asian steppes. The Turks took this art with them and spread it everywhere they went.
Private collectors, elite families and museums are proud owners of antique rugs. In the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries, handmade Turkish carpets were valuable items of the noble and wealthy families of Europe.
