On the Design:

This striking square kilim achieves powerful sophistication through the dense, dramatic layering of fine vertical lines. The design utilizes a consistent, rhythmic application of vertical stripes that visually pull the eye upward, giving the piece a monumental feel.

The palette is intensely deep and grounding: wide bands of near-black charcoal and dark brown serve as a commanding foundation. This darkness is beautifully interrupted by luminous, thin stripes of muted brick red and pale beige, creating a sharp, sophisticated contrast.

The slight, organic irregularity in the lines, characteristic of tribal hand-weaving, prevents the dense pattern from feeling mechanical, instead lending it a beautiful, flowing movement. This kilim offers a strong, mood-setting foundation, perfect for defining a major seating area with its sophisticated, dark aesthetic.

Condition:

This vintage kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage. See less
