Made with handwoven wool circa 1950-1960, this 4x4 vintage square flat-weave Sofreh Kilim is a particularly dramatic and sought-after work of an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of classic kilims and flatweaves.
On the Design:
This bold, traditional Sofreh is a striking study in contrast, allowing a powerful field of color to be framed by geometric intensity. The center is a minimalist open field of rich, pulsating burgundy and deep wine, exhibiting beautiful <i>abrash</i> where the color shifts naturally and draws the eye inward.
This expansive color is contained by a dramatic, graphic frame of charcoal black borders featuring large, striking saw-tooth serrations. This tribal motif serves as a visual tension, suggesting mountains or protective arrows guarding the central calm. The deep palette and simplified structure are characteristic of classic Sofreh pieces, offering the gravity and depth of a traditional masterpiece in a versatile, contemporary square format. The piece is a pure expression of tribal art, where the beauty lies in the tension between the reserved field and the energetic borders.
Condition:
This vintage kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
