About the Item

77770 Vintage Southwestern-Style Klagetoh-Inspired Kilim Rug, 04'06 x 07'02. This vintage handwoven wool kilim is a striking interpretation of the Klagetoh-inspired design tradition from the American Southwest, known for its architectural geometry and profound symbolic resonance. At the heart of the composition lies a commanding stepped diamond motif—an emblem of protection and balance—enclosed within radiating angular patterns that echo the iconic forms of mesas, mountains, and sacred landscapes. The earthy palette of golden ochre, rust red, soft grey, warm brown, and black evokes the rugged majesty of the desert terrain from which these aesthetic traditions draw their power. With symmetrical elegance, the central diamond serves as a stabilizing force, anchoring the eye while simultaneously suggesting expansion and movement. The stepped elements radiating outward embody a dialogue between land and sky, symbolizing ascent, grounding, and spiritual rootedness. These forms pay homage to a weaving tradition deeply inspired by the natural world, where each angle, color, and contour carries meaning. The composition conveys not only aesthetic beauty but a sense of purpose, harmony, and connection to place. Framing the central field is a repeating border of arrow-like motifs in red and black, arranged with rhythmic precision to form a protective perimeter around the main design. These directional elements symbolize guidance, intention, and protection—concepts central to many Native American-inspired philosophies. Their presence adds dynamism to the kilim while inviting the viewer into a state of reflection, subtly invoking principles of balance and harmony akin to the concept of Hózhó, the beauty-way: a worldview that unites wellness, aesthetics, and spiritual integrity. More than a decorative textile, this Klagetoh-inspired kilim stands as a testament to the weaver’s creative vision and cultural fluency. Its deliberate interplay of color, form, and symbolism invites not just admiration, but contemplation. Whether placed in a living space, study, or gallery, this rug brings with it the enduring spirit of the Southwest—its resilience, its beauty, and its deep-rooted reverence for land and legacy. Rendered in variegated shades of gray, beige, brown, black, coffee, and maroon red with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. A couple of spots. Handwoven wool. Made in America.
