A specialist in kilims since the early 1970s, the TRIFF gallery has largely contributed to making these weavings known in France and Europe. Since its creation, the gallery has always favored the criteria of quality, authenticity, aesthetics and originality for the choice of its kilims.
The patterns on this kilim are very characteristic of this region. However, the sky blue background color is more unusual and the border is particularly elaborate.
Early 20th century kilim from the Shahsavan tribes, northwest Iran
This kilim is a beautiful example of the stripes woven by the women of the Shahsavan tribes. The wool is dense and lustrous. The different shades of red, blue and brown are highlighted by the beige.
