Description from the seller

Magnificently handwoven Shahsavan (Shasevan) kilim – traditional tribal motifs – Caucasus
Exceptionally beautiful handwoven Shahsavan kilim with a rich geometric pattern and a beautiful, harmonious color combination. A characterful rug that reflects the traditional weaving art of the Shahsavan, a people renowned for their colorful and intricately crafted tribal textiles.

The kilim features an impressive central medallion, surrounded by numerous geometric ornaments, stylized birds, and traditional tribal motifs. The broad, richly adorned border with repeating geometric figures forms a stunning whole with the central design. The combination of deep blue, terracotta red, cream, soft green, light blue, and ocher yellow gives the rug a warm and particularly vibrant appearance.

The refined details, the characteristic weave structure, and the subtle irregularities emphasize the artisanal nature of this remarkable kilim. The decorative fringes at both ends provide an authentic finish.

Shahsavan kilims are beloved for their pronounced geometric patterns, traditional motifs, and rich use of color. Each rug has its own character and forms a beautiful reflection of the centuries-old nomadic weaving traditions.

Thanks to its timeless look, this kilim fits beautifully in classic, rustic, bohemian, and modern interiors alike. It looks especially striking as a cozy area rug, but can also be used as a decorative wall tapestry.

The kilim shows light signs of wear and aging that suit its authentic character.

A particularly decorative and characterful piece of traditional textile, in which artisanal craftsmanship, rich ornamentation, and the beauty of Shahsavan weaving come together.
