The Pictorial Persian Kilim measures 2.9 by 1.29 metres and originates from Shiraz, Iran. This handwoven flatweave rug showcases traditional tribal storytelling through its distinct pictorial design.
At the centre of the design is a stylised tree, encircled by human figures drawn with simple, assured lines. These motifs symbolise themes such as family, growth, and rural life rhythms, reflecting the cultural heritage of southern Iranian nomadic art. The rug’s warm latte background provides a serene base for geometric shapes in deep olive green, brick red, ivory, and subtle mustard tones. A bold serrated border frames the composition, evoking a window into Persian history.
Crafted from wool using traditional techniques, the rug’s irregularities highlight the artisan’s hand, giving it genuine character and depth. Its flatweave (kilim) construction ensures a lightweight yet durable piece suitable for various living spaces.
This vintage kilim offers a unique blend of cultural significance and timeless style. Ideal for hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms, it adds sophistication and a narrative element to interiors. Proper care is recommended to maintain its condition over time.
