6'2" x 11'6" (188cm x 351cm) Iran, Northern Persia: Mid-20th Century Flat-weave (kilim): wool
$ on request
An old tribal flat-weave from Northern Iran, woven in three narrow panels, originally used as a simple, utilitarian floor cover in the weaver's household. The hand-spun wool in natural ivory and brown is interspersed with colorful stripes.
Despite its humble origins, the kilim has tremendous modern/minimalist appeal and great authentic charm that cannot be imitated by its contemporary look-alikes.
