Dikmen Carpets (click here for more information)

For centuries, the Milas region has been famous for hand woven carpets. A distinguishing character of these carpets is the use of light/dark browns and yellow, together with pastel shades, which make for a very attractive carpet.

Within the designs, the various motif's and symbols have local significance, including representing fertility, wealth, courage and good luck.

Although chemical dyes are available, the hand weavers continue to use vegtable dyes

Contact Hayati Dikmem and he will be able to explain in detail how the carpets are produced and explain the meanings of the motif's and symbols.
