Made with handwoven wool circa 1950-1960, this 4x6 vintage Kilim, originating from the Larkhabi region of Afghanistan, is a particularly captivating and sought-after work from Rug & Kilim’s curation of classic flatweaves.
On the Design:
Emerging from the nomadic artistry of the Larkhabi region in Afghanistan, this piece is woven using the revered Soumak flatweave technique. This meticulous wrapping of the weft threads imparts a subtle, braided texture and sculptural depth, setting it apart from traditional kilims. The design is structured by bold, alternating horizontal bands of deep chocolate brown, vibrant forest green, and burnt orange. These bands are adorned with fine, rhythmic sequences of small geometric motifs, including interlocking diamonds and octagons, creating a dense, rich texture. The overall effect is one of quiet complexity, where the earthy palette allows the structure and texture of the Soumak weave to take prominence. The organic, undulating stripe edges authenticate its tribal heritage. This Soumak Kilim is a woven narrative of cultural presence and timeless artistry, offering sophisticated texture and depth to any space.
Condition:
This vintage kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
