Vintage Afghan Kilim Runner in Burgundy with Chevrons, from Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Handwoven in wool, circa 1950-1960, this 2×6 vintage Afghan tribal kilim runner, is a collectible tribal piece that may have been used as table covers in nomadic daily life, much similar to Persian Sofreh Kilims. On the Design: Drawing on Afghan tribal sensibilities, this archaic piece of art exhibiting an old-world charm has a construction that is especially formidable among kilims, and it’s aged beautifully in kind. As a likely table runner, this Afghan’s construction is especially formidable among flatweaves, and it’s aged beautifully in kind. Drawing on Baluch tribal sensibilities, this archaic piece of art exhibiting an old-world charm, features a polychromatic colorway. Connoisseurs may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period. It’s a fine play of rustic geometric motifs and stripes in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and its size offers vast design applications, making it well suited to wall-hanging tapestry projects and other decorative purposes. Condition: This vintage Afghan tribal kilim runner enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It is a very collectible piece, ready for the floor and size is also well suited to wall-hanging tapestry projects and other decorative purposes.
