About the Item

Vintage Persian Kilim Rug in Subtle Earth Tones Size: 11'3" × 15'10" (342 × 482 cm) Age: Vintage Color: Beige, Brown, Taupe Origin: Persia Pattern: Solid, Striped This vintage Persian Kilim rug from the 1960s is a masterclass in understated elegance, embodying the essence of minimalist beauty and artisanal craftsmanship. Woven by hand using traditional flat-weaving techniques, this Kilim presents a refined palette of warm neutrals—taupes, muted browns, soft creams, and gentle greys—arranged in subtly variegated vertical and horizontal striping that lend the piece a distinct patchwork aesthetic. The surface of the rug displays a nuanced rhythm created by the interlocking of tonal panels, each featuring faint, linear striations or gradients of color that shift organically from one section to another. The linearity evokes the natural fading and textural irregularities of hand-spun wool dyed using plant-based and mineral pigments, giving each portion of the rug a unique character. Occasional weft deviations and tonal inconsistencies add to the tactile richness, highlighting its handmade authenticity. What sets this Kilim apart is its quiet sophistication—the rug’s muted colors and absence of overt patterning make it incredibly versatile for modern interiors. It works effortlessly in both rustic and contemporary settings, functioning as a grounding element that enhances rather than competes with its surroundings. Soft to the touch and visually serene, this Kilim is not just a decorative piece but a timeless artifact that reflects the enduring legacy of Persian weaving traditions. Whether used in a living room, gallery space, or open loft, it offers both a warm visual anchor and a piece of cultural history. 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.
