About the Item

This small square handwoven rug is a traditional brown "Sofreh" kilim rug; the design features an open field with a diamond medallion framed by a zig-zag border that encloses the open field. The colour and the design of this wool area rug make it the perfect accent rug for any room in your home. This attractive wool rug was constructed with only the finest hand-spun wool and cotton that have been dyed with organic vegetable dyeing techniques that have been used for generations. Master weavers employ traditional techniques in the construction, creating highly durable carpets that are sure to last for decades if cared for correctly. Kilim rugs have been used for generations on both walls and floors; easily style this piece with any classic or modern home. The term “Sofreh” is a word that means a cloth upon which food is served. The term “spread the Sofreh” is used rather than “set the table.” It also refers to a gathering that involves serving a meal to guests. A “Sofreh” refers literally to a cloth used for this purpose but is a term that is generalized to encompass the preparation of the food, practices, dishes, and rituals involved in this type of religious feast. Food, and rituals surrounding food, play a significant role in tribal cultures. Ceremonies surrounding food are a part of Muslim, Zoroastrian, Jewish and other diaspora communities as well. This piece is in great condition, ready for use in any room. Measures: 115 x 115cm. Antique Rugs, Brown "Sofreh" Wool Carpet, Small Square Kilims Area Rug
