Milas Carpet
A different dream in every loop, a different
life and a different story in every thread…
These carpets, with their unique characteristics, have survived from past
to present as local women weaving loop by loop on their benches for days
and nights, decorating their dreams and hopes on each knot, keeping as one
of the most important items of the dowry of young girls.
“Milas Carpet” is a woven carpet made with double knot technique. The vil-
lagers use the wool they obtain from the sheep they breed in Milas.
