I am trying to identify the meaning of all the symbols.
So far I've found a few of them from online posts of Turkish rug symbols–
- Woman
- Swan (marriage and fertility)
- Wolf's mouth
- Scorpion
- Ram's horn
- Running water
If you know more of the symbols, or if this type of blanket (mats or kilim) was given as a wedding present. please let me know.
Specifics:
- Approximate size 38" x 54"
- Hand woven, fringe on one end
- Cream/off-white natural wool, with natural variations in woven strands
- Hand embroidered with multiple color and multiple types of yarn/floss
