Handwoven in wool and originating circa 1950–1960, this 5x8 vintage kilim rug is a tribal addition to the new works in the Rug & Kilim collection.
On the Design:
Connoisseurs and designers alike will appreciate the rhythmic intensity of this vintage flatweave, where a polychromatic colorway of rich, saturated hues underscores both stripes and geometric patterns in a sophisticated all-over style. The field is defined by a dense sequence of vertical bands in deep brick red, burnt orange, and midnight blue, punctuated by delicate cream accents. Keen eyes will admire the meticulous detail within each column, where rows of geometric zigzag motifs and dashed-line stippling create a visual vibration—a true feat of precision in this expansive format.
This kilim is a colorful work of rustic charm and personal beauty, offering a bold architectural anchor with vast design applications. The proportions allow the geometric energy to radiate evenly, making it an idyllic choice for grounding a sitting area or centering a creative studio. This comfortable nomadic aesthetic remains grounded yet visually electric, suitable for modern and traditional projects desiring a high-impact splash of color.
Condition:
This vintage flatweave enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
