Made with handwoven wool in Persia 1950-1960, this 4x6 vintage Shahsavan Kilim is one of a gorgeous new pair of twin rugs—each a particularly bright and sought-after work, and an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of classic kilims and flatweaves.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft will recognize how this mid-century Persian kilim is an exemplary study in minimalist sophistication. The brown, gray and white neutral field creates a compelling visual rhythm through sophisticated color relationships and organic edge variations that authenticate its tribal origins. The organic fringe edges, slightly irregular and hand-drawn, authenticate the piece's tribal origins where geometric precision yields to human touch. Perfect for layering under furniture or defining seating areas, this piece transforms any space through its confident color relationships and authentic cultural presence—a rare example of nomadic artistry achieving timeless contemporary relevance. These pieces exemplify the nomadic sophistication characteristic of Shahsevan tribal workshops from the Ardabil region, where Azerbaijani-speaking Turkic groups developed the distinctive geometric vocabulary that bridges Persian and Caucasian design traditions through centuries of cultural synthesis.
Condition:
This pair of vintage kilims further enjoys good condition for their age and lineage and they can be purchased as a set or individually upon request.
