Hand-woven flat-weave textile (kilim/cicim runner), likely made by an ethnic Turkish village weaver in northeastern Bulgaria (Provadiya–Varna region), mid-20th century (circa 1930s–1950s). Woven for household use rather than commercial production. Made primarily of wool, with a dense, durable weave and raised geometric motifs typical of cicim/zili techniques. The pattern features repeated diamond motifs traditionally associated with protection, strength, and continuity in Turkish weaving culture. The reverse side shows the mirrored pattern, confirming hand flat-weaving. Condition: Good overall vintage condition consistent with age and use. Some color fading, minor edge fraying, a few loose threads, and three missing tassels. No major structural damage; the textile remains intact and stable. Provenance: Inherited through the family. Associated with a Turkish great-grandmother born in 1918 in a village near Provadiya, Bulgaria, who later lived in Ezerovo near Varna.
