Hand-Woven Carpets

Hand-Woven Carpet Selection Guide

Hand-woven carpets can vary from one individual piece to another in dimensions, pattern, colour distribution and signs of use. Two products with similar names should not automatically be treated as identical. Review the stated dimensions, photographs and product description for each item.

The current category contains many products named Milas and Yoruk, plus Balikesir Yoruk and items explicitly named antique Milas or antique Yoruk. Regional or antique wording is listing information and should be verified at product level when provenance or age is important.

Milas Hand-Woven Carpets

The category includes many Milas hand-woven carpets in different dimensions, including examples such as 82×132 cm, 120×193 cm, 161×244 cm, 199×246 cm and 198×307 cm. This range provides options for different room layouts and decorative uses.

Check the actual size, pattern, colour distribution, edges, fringes and overall surface condition. Do not assume fibre content or age unless it is verified for the individual product.

Yoruk Hand-Woven Carpets

Yoruk hand-woven carpets also make up a large part of the category. Dimensions range from long, narrow pieces such as 75×251 cm to larger options such as 190×285 cm, 203×250 cm and 286×197 cm.

Compare dimensions with the intended room, corridor or decorative area and review pattern, colour balance and condition from the actual product images.

Balikesir Yoruk Hand-Woven Carpets

Several products are specifically listed as Balikesir Yoruk, including dimensions such as 75×251 cm, 160×200 cm, 155×263 cm and 161×237 cm. For example, see the Balikesir Yoruk Hand-Woven Carpet 160×200 cm.

Regional naming does not by itself establish all historical or technical characteristics. Review the specific item's photographs, dimensions and seller information.

Products Listed as Antique

The category also contains products explicitly named Antique Milas or Antique Yoruk. Examples include Antique Milas Hand-Woven Carpet 128×183 cm, Antique Yoruk Hand-Woven Carpet 166×231 and Antique Milas Hand-Woven Carpet 213×166 cm.

“Antique” is the wording used in the product listing. If exact age, authenticity, restoration history or collectible value matters, verify those points from the seller and any available supporting documentation.

How Should Hand-Woven Carpet Size Be Chosen?

Measure the intended area in centimetres before ordering. Decide whether the carpet will sit under furniture, cover only a central area, be used in a corridor or serve a decorative purpose. Use the stated actual dimensions rather than expecting standard mass-produced sizes.

What Should You Check Before Buying?

• Actual dimensions: compare width and length with the intended space.
• Product photographs: inspect colour, pattern, edges, fringes and surface condition.
• Condition: check wear, stains, holes, edge loss or repair information.
• Origin information: verify Milas, Yoruk or Balikesir Yoruk descriptions at product level.
• Material information: rely on wool, cotton, silk or other fibre claims only when verified for the specific item.
• Older/antique listings: verify age and authenticity claims with seller information or documentation where available.

Why Is Condition Important?

Older or frequently used hand-woven carpets may show natural signs of use, colour change, fringe loss or repair. These details can affect appearance, usability and price. Always review the photographs of the exact item being purchased.

Care of Hand-Woven Carpets

Cleaning requirements depend on the actual fibre, weaving structure and condition. Harsh chemicals, high heat or an unsuitable washing method can damage delicate or older pieces. When material is uncertain, specialist carpet-care advice is preferable.

Hand-Woven Carpet Prices

Hand-woven carpet prices can vary according to dimensions, pattern, weaving structure, stated origin, age, condition, rarity and repairs. Square-metre price alone may not provide a meaningful comparison for unique or older hand-woven pieces.
