Antique Uzbek Gajari kilim with outstanding colour and design..

This is a traditional manner of weaving among the Uzbeks of Central Asia. The designs are "typical" of this type, often referred to as "Gajari", which refers to the technique of weaving, a brocade type weave with the dyed warps hanging loose on the back and brought to the front when necessary to make the design. This example has very bold graphic design and wonderful natural dye colours throughout.
Excellent condition, very slight wear. This Gajari is unusual in that it is double thickness, so heavy and durable.
Hand washed and ready for use or display.
