Persian Shiraz Kilim

Persian kilim. Shiraz, 20th century.
Hand-knotted wool.
Measurements: 176 x 118 cm.

Iranian kilim hand-woven by the nomadic tribes of Shiraz. It presents a red field decorated with rhomboidal figures that welcome geometric patterns of different tones. The border has a jagged profile characteristic of kilims. Like the rest of Persian kilims, our specimen stands out for its geometric designs (geometries that synthesize rosettes and other vegetal elements) and vibrant colors. Reds, greens, yellows, blacks, browns and ochers predominate.
