This striking tribal textile is a superb example of a flat woven kilim, originating from the nomadic weaving traditions of Northwest Persia. Its robust construction and bold geometry distinguish it among antique rugs of the early 20th century.

The design features a dramatic, large-scale zigzag motif that resolves into nested diamond forms across the field. This powerful visual rhythm creates the impression of an expansive, allover rugs pattern, characteristic of confident tribal artistry. The composition is structured yet dynamic, avoiding the constraints of a central medallion in favor of continuous movement.

Woven with naturally dyed wool, the palette is rich and earthy, featuring deep terracotta reds, midnight browns, and contrasting ivory white. Accents of clear blue, muted gold, and subtle mauve elevate the piece, making it a vibrant example of multicolor jewel tone rugs that still retains a sophisticated, antique patina.

The scale of this piece makes it ideal for use as a vibrant accent or wall hanging, perfectly suited for collectors seeking small scatter size rugs. Its graphic impact and exceptional condition ensure it serves as a powerful focal point in both traditional and contemporary interiors. See less
