VINTAGE KILIM COMPOSITION

The field is organized into five vertical panels of undyed tones, each showing fine horizontal striations that shift from pale cream to warm tan and soft gray-brown. There is no border to speak of, the panels running edge to edge, and no distinct motifs interrupt the quiet banding of natural color. The composition reads as a sequence of subtly varied stripes rather than a framed field.

SAVONNERIE

An ivory field carries a soft blue medallion at its center, the diamond shape edged in gold scrollwork and filled with a bouquet of pink roses and blue sprigs. A pale blue band surrounds this field, scattered with garlands and floral bunches, while the wide ivory border is divided into rectangular panels, each holding a bouquet tied with gold ribboning, and cream cartouches occupy the corners with their own floral clusters.

Arts & Crafts

A long open field in pale ivory is framed by a sage-green scalloped medallion outline that narrows into stepped, angular corners at top and bottom. Stylized palmette motifs in cream and coral emerge from scrolling cartouches at each end, echoed by small pendant finials hanging into the open ground. The wide surrounding ground is a warm, muted gold, left plain apart from the terminal ornaments.

UKRAINIAN

A deep black ground carries an open field ringed by large blooming roses, peonies, and leafy sprays rendered in coral, salmon, cream, and sage green. At the center rests a gilded lyre encircled by a wreath of small flowers, and the border repeats a tight rosette-and-leaf chain against the same dark background.

UKRAINIAN

A near-square field of deep brown ground is scattered with rosette-form blossoms in ivory, dusty rose, gold, and pale blue, interspersed with small birds facing one another and one central long-necked bird rendered in ochre and rose. A narrow gold band frames the field before a wide border of stylized hooked and paisley-like forms in rose, blue, and cream against the same dark ground, with a slender rose-colored guard stripe on the outer edge.

ART DECO

A pale sage field is scattered with a regular grid of small dark green ovoid florets, each strung on faint connecting lines that run row by row across the ground. Enclosing this is a plain deep green border, then a narrow band of miniature diamond and dot motifs alternating in light and dark green, framed by a slim inner and outer green guard stripe. The palette stays within tones of green throughout, giving the piece a quiet, uniform surface.

SWEDISH FLAT WEAVE

All over design.

The field spans a uniform pale grey, its surface animated only by a fine, tonal diaper of small interlocking motifs that catch the light rather than the eye. No border frames the composition, so the pattern runs unbroken to the plain selvage on all four sides. The overall effect is quiet and textural, with color kept nearly monochrome throughout.

Serapi

An ivory field carries a large rust-red medallion with a serrated outline, elongated green pendants at top and bottom, and dense angular vinery in coral, teal, and blackish-green scattered across the ground. The wide border is a soft slate blue filled with rows of small polychrome diamond and blossom forms, framed by narrower rust-toned guard stripes with reciprocal patterning.

The field is left entirely open, given over to a soft chevron-patterned surface in mingled shades of blue and ivory that shift subtly with the light. A plain flatwoven border in pale gray frames the lower edge, finished with a long fringe of twisted warp ends. An inset detail shows the close, even interlacing of the yarns, mottled blue against undyed white.

Content: Polypropylene

The surface is left entirely open, given over to a plain field of horizontal ribbed rows without border or motif. Ivory strands are twisted through with flecks of soft blue-gray, producing a mottled, heathered texture across the whole ground. A detail inset at lower right magnifies the looped rows, showing the chevron-like structure formed by the twisted strands.
