Mid-20th Century Tribal Turkish Jajim kilim. Measures: 7.8” x 10.6” With the Jijim weaving technique, different colored threads are applied between the weft and warp threads, on the reverse of the weave. It is often used to decorate a plain-weave object, or to create small ornamental motifs, that may be scattered or in series. The ground-weave underneath shows through, giving the impression of an embroidered motif and it is often used to fill areas of negative space. Bristle wefts are often used to create a textured effect on bags, mats, and quilts.
