Afghan-Kelim Modern, a handwoven runner from Afghanistan.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This handwoven Kelim runner stands out in particular for its distinctive, continuous geometric pattern and its clear two-tone color scheme. The entire surface is filled with regularly recurring diamond-like motifs that run along the full length of the rug, creating a very rhythmic overall effect.

In color, the Kelim is defined by a strong coral red to orange and a cool gray-blue. The two colors merge directly and form a high-contrast, yet balanced pattern. Thanks to the uniform repetition of the geometric shapes, the rug feels lively and modern without appearing restless.

The visible weave structure and the slightly irregular edges of the individual motifs emphasize the handcrafted character. The light-colored tassels on the narrow sides provide a simple finish.

With its dimensions of 251 × 61 cm, the Kelim is ideally suited as a runner for hallways, corridors, or narrow living areas.
