Antique Circ. 1890 Russian Shirvan Wool & Cotton Hand-Woven Kilim 5'1 x 9'6

About the Item

Antique Caucasian Shirvan Kilim 5'1 x 9'6. This is a Kilim weave (slit tapestry) flat-woven small carpet from the Shirvan area in a pattern absolutely characteristic of the group. Wide and narrower horizontal bands alternate with stepped hexagons and lozenges, respectively, as the major motives. The blue and red grounds of the major sections are nearly covered by the decorations while the ivory secondary stripes are more sparsely patterned. Triangle multicolored bands separate the wider areas. Red, light blue, mustard, blue-green, brown-black, orange-rose and camel are among the accent tones. The construction is all wool, both the mixed barber pole warps and the pattern wefts. The condition is generally quite good with well-preserved natural colors.

Antique Caucasian Shirvan Kilim Rug 5'5 x 9'10
Located in New York, NY
Antique Caucasian Shirvan Kilim Rug 5'5 x 9'10. This is a Shirvan Kilim long rug with a pattern of wide navy horizontal rows of stepped hexagons enclosing smaller, similar hooked devices. Instead of wide and somewhat narrower bands alternating, the latter have shrunk to thinner ivory lines with stepped crosses as ornaments. Terra cotta, ivory, medium blue, yellow-tan and brown-lack are among the salient tones of this slit tapestry carpet with a generally more restrained palette. At the ends of the broad sections are amusing geometric fillers. The general tonality extends to the dark grey-brown barber pole warps. In their country of origin, these kilims had multiple functions: floor coverings, room dividers, wall decorations, cart covers, indeed any place where a durable, colorful larger scale textile...
