Neutral Wool Kashkooli Rug with Springtime Scene and Animal Motifs, 4x6
Located in New York, NY
This hand-knotted 4x6 Kashkooli rug features a lyrical springtime scene woven across a softly striated neutral wool field. Delicate animal figures and budding plant motifs appear throughout the composition, evoking pastoral renewal and seasonal movement, a hallmark of Kashkooli weaving traditions rooted in storytelling and nature. Subtle horizontal bands provide structure while preserving the spontaneity of the landscape-like design. Small-scale symbolic figures, grazing animals, sprouting flora, and geometric accents, introduce quiet rhythm without interrupting the calm, open field. Woven in warm earth tones with restrained color highlights, this piece balances tribal authenticity with a refined, design-forward sensibility. The result is a rug that feels both grounded and expressive which is perfect for those who appreciate nomadic-inspired textiles and interiors that favor organic texture and understated narrative. Timeless in palette yet rich in meaning, this Kashkooli rug captures the spirit of spring through form rather than excess.
