Antique Bessarabian Kilim in Beige, Gold & Red Floral Medallion by Rug & Kilim

About the Item

This antique 12x14 Kilim is an extremely rare Bessarabian flat weave in new additions to Rug & Kilim’s collection. Handwoven in wool, we believe it originates from Russia circa 1850-1869. Further on the Design: This collectible is a charmingly archaic rendering that evokes European neoclassical sensibilities and Art Nouveau elements. The vision unfolds in beautiful tones of beige-brown and florals in a regal play of medallion and all-over style. Keen eyes would note fine detailing with red and light pink accents with a delicious, tasteful highlight to the patterns. This is a one-of-a-kind 19th-century European rug—sophisticated, and furthermore versatile in its rare large size. Further On the condition: This antique Bessarabian Kilim further enjoys good condition for its uncommon age and origin. It hosts minimal, natural wear, and it’s ready for the floor.
