About the Item

This 1940s Moldavian Kilim is an exceptional example of Eastern European folk-art flatweaving, distinguished by its bold palette and striking composition. Entirely handwoven in wool on a cotton foundation, the rug features a deep brown field decorated with a vivid central arrangement of red floral motifs, an iconic element of Moldavian village weaving. Soft green leaves, pale pink accents, and stepped geometric forms give the piece its characteristic charm and authenticity. A dramatic peach and rose zig-zag border frames the composition, adding a rhythmic geometric structure typical of mid-century Moldavian flatweave rugs. Measuring 306 × 242 cm, this large Kilim has strong visual presence and works beautifully as a living-room centrepiece, dining-room anchor, or a statement folk-art textile displayed on a wall. Its heavy wool flatweave construction ensures durability, making it suitable for both decorative and functional use. Celebrated for their symbolic floral patterns, Moldavian Kilims often represent abundance, vitality, and domestic harmony, and this piece reflects those traditions with clarity and colour. Its combination of bold graphic design, saturated tones, and handwoven craftsmanship makes it a highly collectible Eastern European rug that transitions seamlessly between traditional interiors and contemporary spaces seeking warmth, contrast, and cultural depth.
