Made with handwoven wool, this 5x7 Kilim represents an exciting new line of Modern Classics and contemporary flatweaves by Rug & Kilim—a series of designs inspired by antique Suzani Kilims and textiles, among the richest weaving traditions in Central Asian history.On the Design: A clean, natural ivory field underscores a framed and exuberant array of colorful floral and abstract teardrop motifs. The pattern is dominated by delicate, spiraling vine work—a signature of Suzani design—which connects the motifs in a playful, complex web. The central focus is a circular arrangement of stylized blooms and teardrop palmettes, where keen eyes will particularly admire how each imaginative motif enjoys a unique play of polychromatic colors (including bright reds, blues, yellows, and greens), and the sense of whimsical, flowing life it lends this piece. Admirers of the craft will further appreciate the unique revival of this technique in a durable all-wool construction with intricate embroidery—a more sustainable way to recreate these old-world textile designs while still capturing their fabulous, elegant look. Each piece is so unique and deeply personal in its particular details and flowing beauties that distinguish the style in our craft—as much vibrant works of folk art as they are warm and welcoming choices for the floor and wall-hanging projects alike.Tribal pictorial tapestries such as those that inspired this are rich, collectible glimpses into the themes of life, and the flowing, colorful vinework speaks of this rug’s richness—a truly special piece evoking the beauty of old-world charm and a cultured air alike.Custom Capable: All sizes and colors available—inquire for a quote.
