Fine Ukrainian Kilim, Circa 1900, 3.05m X 2.07m

1900 - 1920
Sold 28 January 2025 · Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs

Description

There is still confusion about the origins of many antique kilims from this region. The generic term 'Bessarabian' is often used. But in this case we can be a little more precise. It was recently bought directly from Ukraine, and my feeling is that it was woven in the Kiev region around 1900. It is an absolutely charming piece. The brown background is decorated with an elegant stylised floral design which is repeated through the borders. Note the meandering vine in the borders. The secondary colours include pale blues, greens reds, and a really lovely pale amber. The composition feels both rustic and refined at the same time which is one of the magical characteristics of this intriguing group of kilims. Beautifully made with soft wool on hemp warps, the fabric feels robust. It has the typical tapestry weave associated with this group which means there are no slits in the fabric. Note also the lovely use of 'eccentric' or curved wefts in the floral ornaments which creates a sense of texture and three dimensionality. Clearly cherished through the generations it has survived very well. Professionally cleaned and with only very minor restoration. This is a decorative kilim that could adorn any number of interior spaces.

Date of Manufacture

Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs has dated this Antique Ukrainian Kilim to the 1900s.

Ukrainian kilims are traditional flatwoven textiles originating from Eastern Europe, known for their distinct floral motifs, rich colour palettes, and cultural significance in domestic spaces.

These textiles are typically crafted using hand-spun wool for both warp and weft, utilising a slit-tapisserie flatweaving technique that creates sharp geometric or curved colour transitions without pile.

Authenticity is assessed by examining natural dye variations, hand-spun wool irregularities, traditional motifs specific to the region, and the presence of expected age-related wear.

These flatweave rugs can be layered over natural wood flooring or hung as wall tapestries to introduce texture, heritage pattern, and warmth into modern living spaces.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialist cleaning only, and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent dye fading.
