Hand knotted in wool, this 4x5 Afghan tribal kilim represents a new line of tribal carpets in the Modern Classics Collection by Rug & Kilim. Each piece represents the work of women weavers in Afghanistan, preserving the rich tradition of their centuries-old craft.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft may appreciate design elements inherent to the Afghan tribal design in this piece. This piece enjoys rich red, beige/brown, blue and green tones in the field. The design, featuring elegant geometric patterns all over the field, looks to be opened up from a tribal bag.
Keen eyes may further admire a mild textural detail in the pile, almost like a subdued high-and-low element in the pile, and a subtle sense of dimension therein that still plays so naturally with the movement and richness that underscores this piece. It’s a comfortable, personal piece, exemplary of primitivist, old-world patterns and the devoted tribal weavers who recapture their beauty. less
