The central field, a deep and magnetic midnight blue, is decorated with regular rows of traditional comb motifs ("Tarak"), an ancestral symbol linked to family protection and prosperity.
The rich border plays on contrasting shades of cream, brick red, ochre, powder blue, and touches of antique pink.
The craftsmanship is distinguished by the use of finely spun wool, which gives the rug a light, thin, and beautifully sheared texture, almost silky to the touch, typical of the finest traditional productions in Eastern Europe (the Balkans) or the Caucasus.
The rug is completely reversible (double-faced): the design and color intensity are identical on both sides, a characteristic of excellence that attests to its exquisite, entirely hand-crafted workmanship and doubles its longevity.
The kilim is in excellent original vintage condition.
It has not undergone invasive chemical washes or modern restorations, thus preserving its authentic patina and the typical, genuine scent of raw wool. The fringes exhibit natural, slight irregularities in length due to age, a characteristic that certifies their authenticity and handcrafting (detailed photos).
A visually striking piece, perfect for adding warmth and character to a modern living room, study, or eclectic bedroom.
