About the Item
This 17x17 antique Bessarabian Kilim is a rich and exciting new collectible from Rug & Kilim’s collection—one of few oversized pieces of its provenance, handwoven in wool and originating from Turkey circa 1880-1890.
On the Design
Designers and admirers of the craft alike will particularly appreciate this Kilim’s outstanding large size—one of the best and most versatile one can find in antique rugs and flatweaves of its period, and all-the-more impressive considering its level of love, detail, and overall sophistication. This grand work seems to exemplify those of its lineage while subtly innovating the style to a keen eye. Woven with meticulous craftsmanship, the piece showcases a commanding central medallion framed by layers of ornate floral borders—a hallmark of traditional Bessarabian design. The symmetrical layout radiates from the center, guiding the eye through a rich tapestry of botanical motifs and stylized vines.
The color palette is both regal and earthy, featuring deep burgundy, olive green, soft ivory, muted taupe, and accents of plum and rose. These sophisticated tones create a beautiful contrast against the dark espresso-brown ground, lending the piece a dramatic presence that remains harmonious and balanced. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this as a particularly expressive work among Bessarabian flatweaves, with very finely woven drawings of exceptional quality.
Condition:
This antique Kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—another rare trait in this exceptional find among its kind left today.
