This charming vintage tribal rug and Kilim weaving together features whimsical animal motifs arranged in a balanced, compartmentalized field. Stylized birds and abstract animal forms are set against a soft natural ground, divided by bold linear elements that create a cross-like layout with a central medallion. The design is framed by richly patterned geometric borders in deep red, ivory, and dark brown.

Hand-knotted from wool, the rug reflects a strong nomadic or village weaving tradition, where symbolic animal imagery often conveyed themes of protection, fertility, and daily life. The drawing is expressive and slightly naïve, giving the piece a distinctive folk-art quality that sets it apart from more formal designs.

Its graphic composition and playful figures make this rug an ideal accent for eclectic, modern, or bohemian interiors. Whether displayed on the floor or as a decorative textile, this piece brings character, storytelling, and authentic tribal craftsmanship into the space. See less
