This late 19th-century antique Caucasian Shirvan kilim is a large flat-woven area rug in a traditional banded tribal style, measuring 320 cm high by 190 cm wide by 1 cm deep. The wool piece displays a dense, firm weave with very slight wear and has been hand washed to prepare it for use or display. The design features an indigo blue ground offset by horizontal bands of geometric diamond motifs, Memling guls, and zig-zag borders rendered in terracotta red, navy blue, green, and yellow natural dyes. Suitable for normal domestic use, this rug functions as a practical floor covering for a living room, dining room, or large hallway. The tribal flatweave construction brings warmth and historical character to interior spaces, pairing easily with traditional or bohemian decor schemes. The generous scale accommodates placement beneath furniture groupings or as a central room anchor, while the durable wool composition stands up to everyday foot traffic.

FAQs

A Caucasian Shirvan kilim is a traditional flat-woven wool carpet originating from the Shirvan region of the Caucasus, characterised by vibrant natural dyes and detailed geometric patterns arranged in horizontal bands.

These textiles are hand-woven using a slit-weave flatweave technique, typically constructed using hand-spun wool for both the structural warp and decorative weft threads.

Authentic 19th-century kilims display natural dye variations known as abrash, hand-spun wool yarn, crisp geometric symmetry, and a flexible structure completely free from synthetic backings.

A patterned geometric kilim can be positioned beneath contemporary furniture to anchor a seating area, adding visual texture, rich colour contrast, and historical depth to a modern interior.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating beater brush, place a non-slip underlay beneath the carpet to reduce friction, and utilize a professional antique textile conservator for specialized washing.
