TURKISH KILIM

Art Inspiration
This illustration ~ with Mediterranean motif ~ was inspired by a delicious dinner at “Tuba,” a Turkish restaurant in San Francisco’s Mission district. I highly recommend this restaurant for its quality food, reasonable prices and cozy environment! (link to restaurant)
Facts and Info: About “Kilim” from Wikipedia
The name ‘kilim’ or ‘kelim’ is Turkish, and comes from the Persian gelim (گلیم) ‘to spread roughly’, which is probably of Mongolian origin.[1] Various forms of the word are used in other languages (e.g. Greek κιλίμι, Albanian qilim, Ukrainian: Килим, Kylym, Lithuanian kilimas). In Kurdish, they are called ‘berr’.
