About the Item
Vintage Persian Kilim Rug
Size: 5'0" × 8'3" (152 × 251 cm)
This striking 1956 Vintage Persian Kilim rug presents a compelling visual narrative grounded in the earthy traditions of tribal weaving, yet subtly infused with a modernist aesthetic. Handwoven with precision and care, the rug features a bold arrangement of horizontal stripes in a richly muted color palette — dusty terracotta, olive green, creamy beige, and heathered charcoal tones alternate rhythmically across the flat-weave surface.
What distinguishes this kilim is its textural subtlety and natural color variations, achieved through the use of undyed and naturally dyed wool. Each stripe reveals handspun yarns with inherent irregularities that celebrate the artisan’s touch and the organic character of the materials. The overall effect is a quiet yet expressive composition that adds warmth and authenticity to a wide range of interiors.
The minimal patterning and linear geometry evoke a sense of balance and order while honoring the rustic sensibility of traditional Persian nomadic craftsmanship. With its age-earned patina and understated elegance, this kilim rug offers both decorative versatility and historical depth — a timeless textile equally suited for modern, bohemian, or eclectic design environments.
Whether used as a grounding element in a living room or as an artful accent in a minimalist space, this vintage Persian kilim is more than a floor covering — it is a piece of woven history.
Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau Collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
