On the Design:
The design employs continuous vine progression punctuated by alternating floral elements—stylized roses and palmettes rendered in pink and green against the luminous beige-cream ground.

The botanical design reveals sophisticated interpretation of traditional Egyptian motifs where lotus-inspired forms merge with Islamic palmette traditions.

Keen eyes for detail may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period.

It’s an unsung exemplar of rustic charm and folk art as much as a comfortable, cozy handmade Kilim, with a versatile size and vast design applications therein.

Altogether a unique exploration of aesthetic that still enjoys durability and comfort underfoot, exemplary of mid-century flatweaves and the unique designs of this provenance.

Condition:

This vintage Egyptian kilim further enjoys good condition, with only minor elements of wear consistent with its age and origins. See less
