Size: 8ft 2in x 4ft 4in (250 x 133cm).
 
Antique Afghan Firozkohi embroidered kilim or cover.
 
Circa 1900.
 
The Firozkohi are a semi nomadic tribe found in North West of Afghanistan. This kilim is a good example of a style which is unique to the Firozkohi, it is soft undyed brown wool, flat woven and then embroidered in bright colours usually in a concentric diamond pattern. This example could be a floor kilim or equally a cover / blanket or even a family eating cloth. This is quite a scarce weaving.
 
The kilim is in good condition with slight even wear, note the original long tassels at both ends. The shape is slightly irregular due to the nomadic origin of the kilim.
