In Central and West Asia, amulets (often in the form of triangular packages containing a sacred verse) were traditionally attached to the clothing of babies and young children to give them protection from forces such as the evil eye. The carpet expert Jon Thompson explains that such an amulet woven into a rug is not a theme: it actually is an amulet, conferring protection by its presence. In his words, "the device in the rug has materiality, it generates a field of force able to interact with other unseen forces and is not merely an intellectual abstraction.

Southern Turkey town Mut is a small province of Mersin city. Throughout history, Central Asian Turkmen tribes have been settled into the mountainous region and continue to perform their traditions into rug making. Motifs from Southern Turkey is a representation of the cultural legacy of the Turkmen tribal community living in Turkey.

A kaftan or caftan (/ˈkæftæn/; Persian: خفتان‎ khaftān) is a variant of the robe or tunic, and has been worn in a number of cultures around the world for thousands of years and is of Asiatic origin. In Russian usage, kaftan instead refers to a style of men's long suit with tight sleeves. Used by many Middle Eastern ethnic groups, the kaftan is ancient Mesopotamian (modern day Iraq) in origin. It may be made of wool, cashmere, silk, or cotton, and may be worn with a sash. Popular during the time of the Ottoman Empire, detailed and elaborately designed garments were given to ambassadors and other important guests at the Topkapi Palace. #sothebys #christies #realestate #sothebysrealty #art #luxury #contemporaryart #luxuryrealestate #realtor #sothebysinternationalrealty #realestateagent #artbasel #artgallery #luxuryhomes #modernart #interiordesign #museum #artcollector #househunting #milliondollarlisting #sir #auction #dreamhome #artist #luxurylifestyle #painting #gagosian #forsale #artwork #bhfyp

On the far west tip of the Cilician plain, south-west of Adana and close to the Mediterranean Sea, the town of Silifke was founded in the third century BC by the Alexandran general Seleucus Nicator, who established the Seleucid dynasty that ruled Syria. Silifke is also known as the place where Emperor Frederick Barbarossa met his demise during the Third Crusade, by falling off his horse into the river! Kilims made in this region are normally small or medium in size. Yastiks and çuval are also woven in çiçim (jijim also cicim), zili, and weft-wrapping techniques.

In Islamic art, some figurative forms, human and animal, are permitted, but in many cases it is considered disrespectful to walk over them, thus precluding their use in knotted rugs and kilims. For the tribal weavers, however, connections with their natural environment, with their animals, and with their family groups are very strong and deeply rooted and will override religious taboo, so that recognizable objects are depicted in their rugs, but these will never be seen to form part of a complete, pseudo-realistic picture. Art for art's sake is a concept alien to Islam, but kilims are practical as well as decorative, so they are of a high order within the definition of Islamic art.

The main motif in this Bahcecik (Kayseri) central Anatolian rug is the wolf mouths centered inside the triple medallion design it usually represents the power and acts as a protection of their sheep, and goats from the beasts of Anatolia.
