On the Design:

The mid-century Persian kilim features horizontal striped design that unfolds in sophisticated dusty rose and deep purple tones, creating elegant chromatic dialogue through alternating warm and cool bands. Each stripe exhibits organic edge variations and subtle tonal gradations that authenticate its nomadic origins, where traditional vegetable dyeing processes produced the nuanced color relationships impossible to achieve through commercial production. This mid-20th century piece exemplifies the restrained aesthetic sensibility that distinguishes superior Bakhtiari weaving—where disciplined geometric vocabulary and sophisticated color orchestration transform utilitarian floor covering into a compelling contemporary design statement.

Condition:

This mid-century Persian Kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. See less
