Description

Made with handwoven wool in Persia circa 1950-1960, this 4×6 vintage Shahsavan Kilim is a particularly bright and sought-after work of an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of classic Kilims and Flat Weaves.

On the Design:

This distinguished vintage Persian kilim emerges from Rug & Kilim’s curated collection as an exemplary study in minimalist sophistication. The alternating coral and charcoal brown horizontal stripes create compelling visual rhythm through sophisticated color relationships and organic edge variations that authenticate its tribal origins. The organic stripe edges, slightly irregular and hand-drawn, authenticate the piece’s tribal origins where geometric precision yields to human touch. Perfect for layering under furniture or defining seating areas, this piece transforms any space through its confident color relationships and authentic cultural presence—a rare example of nomadic artistry achieving time contemporary relevance. This piece exemplifies the nomadic sophistication characteristic of Shahsevan tribal workshops from the Ardabil region, where Azerbaijani-speaking Turkic groups developed the distinctive geometric vocabulary that bridges Persian and Caucasian design traditions through centuries of cultural synthesis.
