Made with handwoven wool circa 1950-1960, this 7x8 vintage Kilim is a particularly bright and sought-after work of an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of classic kilims and flatweaves.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft will particularly appreciate what a special find such bright colors are in kilims, let alone so many abundant white tones that have aged as uncommonly beautifully as those in this piece.
Here, a simple-meets-rich play of cream white, ivory and beige-brown hues underscores the repeat of panel-woven stripes (a play of long, narrow columns and very subtle stitching, as the keen eye will admire, and a time-honored weaving technique by which nomadic tribal weavers of limited means would create larger pieces like this).
The organic striped 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.
Condition:
This vintage kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
