VINTAGE KILIM COMPOSITION

Persian Soumak wool panels

The field is divided into five vertical panels of unequal width, each filled with fine horizontal striations that catch the light differently as the tones shift from pale ivory to warm taupe and soft grey-brown. There is no border framing the composition; the panels simply run edge to edge, meeting in slightly uneven seams. A detail inset shows the close, ridged texture of the surface, where narrow bands of cream, tan, and dark brown alternate in tight, irregular rows.

VINTAGE KILIM COMPOSITION

The field is left entirely open, bordered by unadorned selvedges, and organized instead by narrow vertical stripes that run the full length in varying widths and tonal shifts of beige, tan, and soft taupe. Faint horizontal seams cross the field at intervals, breaking the striping into loose, uneven registers rather than a strict repeat. A detail inset at lower right shows the close, irregular striations of the surface texture up close.
