5x8 Green and Blue Turkish Silk Rug

Details:
Cezaevi rugs, also known as "prison rugs," are hand-woven by inmates in Turkish prisons as a form of rehabilitation and vocational training. These handmade rugs often feature intricate geometric patterns and bold colors and are known for their durability and quality.

The tradition of weaving rugs in Turkish prisons dates back to the late 19th century when the Ottoman Empire established vocational training programs for inmates. Today, the tradition continues in modern Turkish prisons, where inmates have the opportunity to learn the art of rug weaving and earn an income.

Each Cezaevi rug is a unique work of art that reflects the skill and creativity of its weaver. By purchasing a Cezaevi rug, you are not only acquiring a beautiful and functional piece of decor but also supporting the rehabilitation and vocational training of inmates.
