About the Item
A hand-knotted Kilim rug, probably from the Qashqai tribe, circa 1920.
Beautifully preserved, this amazing flat-weaved rug combines pure hand-spun wool in natural shade, plus an array of dyes in several tones of blue and red, to form a primitive, simple, yet stunning geometric pattern with intricate finish. The colors of the natural dyes are still bright and deep throughout the decades.
Both sides of the rug are visually equal, with some naturally occurring knots throughout the surface. The flanges on both ends are an extension of the natural hand-knotting of the rug, which indicates its hand-made authenticity. In addition, the rug presents abrash throughout.
Abrash is a term to describe mottled or stripy color variations that occur in handmade textiles, especially rugs. It is caused by slight differences between vegetable dye lots and their aging process, and natural color variations in hand-spun wool. This condition is very difficult to reproduce in machine-made rugs containing non-organic dyes.
Rather than being a defect, abrash is considered a sign of a rug's authenticity and a desirable characteristic by many collectors.
