Vintage Afghan Tribal Kilim in Red, with Geometric Patterns

About the Item

Handwoven in wool circa 1950-1960, a play of flatweave and pile together, this 3x9 vintage Afghan kilim’s design is most likely a bag, or even a horse cover, once used in nomadic daily life. On the Design: Connoisseurs will note this piece has been opened up, similar to other nomadic Persian bags, rugs and Kilims of this irregular shape found today. This kilim showcases a play of geometric patterns in hues of red, blue, and silver/gray. The geometric patterns and stripes featured in this kilim reflect the nomadic lifestyle and cultural symbolism of the Afghan tribes. Each pattern has been intricately woven with meticulous attention to detail, resulting in a mesmerizing display of craftsmanship. Whether placed on the floor or displayed as a wall hanging, this kilim is a versatile collectible piece. Condition: This Afghan Tribal Kilim is in good condition, and is also well suited to wall-hanging projects in its size and sensibility. If primitivist flatweaves and Kilims are some of the most personal works in rugs and textiles today, these are perhaps some of the most collectible
