About the Item

Vintage Persian Kilim Rug Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 5'0" × 6'2" (152 × 187 cm) This vintage Persian Kilim rug, crafted circa 1955, is a striking example of timeless tribal textile art. Woven entirely by hand from natural wool, the rug showcases a minimalist yet captivating design that blends utilitarian craftsmanship with aesthetic sophistication. The composition is defined by vertical and horizontal alternating indigo-blue and ivory stripes, structured with fine geometric dot accents throughout the blue bands. The pattern achieves subtle dynamism through the varied stripe widths and the occasional presence of light brown vertical lines, offering a visual rhythm that evokes traditional handweaving techniques. From a distance, the rug presents a calm, linear elegance, while a closer look reveals the fine textural details, including the delicate weft-faced weave and minor irregularities—hallmarks of its artisanal origin. The repeated stripes create an overall sense of movement and symmetry, making it an excellent complement for both rustic and modern interiors. The muted blue palette, paired with off-white and occasional earth-tone accents, is characteristic of Persian tribal flatweaves, designed for everyday functionality yet exuding artistic charm. The rug's slightly worn surface and minor abrash (color variation) only enhance its authenticity and vintage character. Perfect for grounding a minimalist space, adding texture to a layered interior, or as a statement piece in eclectic decor, this Kilim is a beautiful relic of mid-century Persian weaving traditions—imbued with both utility and artistry. With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
