Handmade Yagci Bedir rugs are the creation of the feelings and thoughts of Turkish women for over hundreds of years. Each colour in each thread has a special meaning. The colours and patterns used in Yagci Bedir rugs are not randomly chosen and this has been understood years later.
Yagci Bedir rugs are made in Yagci Bedir villages in Sindirgi region, an area part of the Balikesir City, and are the most important rugs made in this district. Yagci Bedir villages are Karakaya, Egridere, Esmedere, Çakilli and Alakir. Karakaya village is often visited by tours from abroad. Also, the Izmir base of NATO schedules twice-yearly trips to Karakaya.
This rug is around 55 to 60 years old and very good condition.
