About the Item

Made with handwoven wool in Persia circa 1950-1960, this 4x12 vintage Shahsavan Kilim runner is a sought-after work of an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of classic Kilims and Flat Weaves. On the Design: This beautiful kilim runner is a celebration of both artisanal craftsmanship and the artistic vision of weavers of the Shahsavan tribe. Defined by its rich simplicity, the central field of the rug features a broad expanse of deep reddish-brown tones, subtly shifting across the surface in softly blended bands. These tonal variations, caused by natural wool dye and the use of hand-spun yarns, lend the piece a gentle, atmospheric quality. Framing this expansive field is a striking decorative border composed of small, geometric motifs rendered in vivid colors like gold, white, red, and gray. From the subtle irregularities in the weave to the softened patina that only age can bestow, this rug carries with it the charm of decades past, making it not only a decorative object but also a tactile piece of history. This piece exemplifies the nomadic sophistication characteristic of Shahsevan tribal workshops from the Ardabil region, where Azerbaijani-speaking Turkic groups developed the distinctive geometric vocabulary that bridges Persian and Caucasian design traditions through centuries of cultural synthesis. Condition: This vintage kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
