Mazandaran kilims are unique, decorative and textiles that hail from a remote part of north central Iran. The Mazandaran Province is bound by the snow-topped Alborz Mountains and the southernmost shores of the Caspian Sea. Its striped Kilims and Primitive "sofrehs" (literally spreads) come in several styles. The district of Hezarjerib produces striking black-and-white striped Kilims. Solid fields and horizontal stripes are prevalent designs. These handcrafted Persian rugs were included in dowries, hung to insulate and decorate walls and used to cover pile carpets and felt mats. Smaller sofrehs functioned as blankets, tablecloths and mats for preparing flour and bread. The traditional Mazandaran Kilim is woven on a narrow loom. Two or more striped panels are joined together to create a larger Mazandaran that displays a greater interaction of patterns. Antique Mazandaran Kilims and flat-weave sofrehs are the most artful and abstract textile art to emerge from Persia in recent years. These extraordinary Kilims for north Persia are renowned for their Minimalist aesthetic, collectible caliber and ability to complement almost any decor or setting. This is an authentic handmade Persian Mazadran Kilim rug. It was woven in Persia 60 years ago. The design is of black stripes on an off white and camel colored background This is an authentic handmade Persian Mazandran Kilim rug. It was woven in Persia 60 years ago.
