Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is composed of five vertical panels, each banded in alternating stripes of ivory and dark brown that shift slightly in register from panel to panel, giving a stepped, brick-like rhythm across the surface. A narrow band of red, cream, and dark striping breaks the sequence near the top and bottom edges, offering the only accent of color in an otherwise neutral, tonal composition. There is no discernible border framing the panels; the stripe pattern runs directly to the outer edges.

Swedish Flat Weave

The field is composed of fine, closely packed horizontal stripes in a mottled mix of ivory, rust red, indigo, olive, and rose, giving an overall flecked appearance rather than a solid tone. Narrow patterned bands near each short end interrupt the striping with small rows of tan, blue, and cream geometric accents before giving way to loose warp fringe. A detail inset shows the individual strands and slightly irregular knotting up close.

Swedish Flat Weave

A long narrow runner composed entirely of horizontal bands in varying widths, each row shifting palette and texture across pale gray, dusty rose, sage green, ochre, powder blue, and cream. No border frames the field; the striping itself runs edge to edge, with fringed ends left plain and unbound. A detail view shows tightly packed weft rows of differing weights and slubs, some flecked with black and white accent striping, giving the surface an irregular, hand-assembled rhythm.

Swedish Flat Weave

A narrow runner built entirely of horizontal bands, each row composed of small flecked stitches in ivory, taupe, slate blue, and rust, with occasional flashes of black and red breaking the pattern. The field carries no central motif or border in the conventional sense, the striped structure itself serving as the entire composition, finished top and bottom with loose ivory fringe. A detail inset shows the close, pebbled texture of the surface up close, revealing the irregular mix of colored flecks within each stripe.

Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is composed of alternating square panels set on the diagonal, forming a checkerboard of dark umber-brown and pale straw-beige blocks. Each panel shows a distinct linear graining running in a single direction, and visible stitched seams trace the edges of every square where the pieces meet. No border frames the composition; the pattern runs edge to edge, broken only by a faint diagonal crease in one lower panel.

Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is composed of an unbordered tumbling-block pattern, each cube built from three diamonds and rhomboids shaded ivory, tan, and a striated taupe-brown to suggest cast light and shadow. The illusion repeats edge to edge with no framing border, the striped graining within each facet running in a consistent diagonal direction to reinforce the three-dimensional effect. Coloration stays within a narrow neutral range of cream, beige, and warm gray-brown throughout.

Vintage Kilim Composition

An overall interlocking pinwheel pattern fills the entire field to the edges, each angular motif built from stepped, key-like hooks that fit together in a continuous tessellation. The palette is limited to soft tones of taupe, camel, and ivory, arranged so that the shapes alternate in a shifting rhythm of light and darker sections. Fine seam lines are visible between panels, running horizontally and vertically across the surface, suggesting the piece is assembled from joined sections.

Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is organized as an offset patchwork grid of rectangular and square panels, each rendered in a flat, unbordered block of color. Tones move through ivory, tan, camel and deep chocolate brown, with several panels showing subtle vertical striations while others sit as solid, uninterrupted color. There is no separate border treatment; the patchwork pattern runs to the outer edges on all sides.

Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is composed of vertical bands in alternating tones of ivory, tan, and taupe, overlaid with a repeating pattern of brown and dark grey diamonds that create an optical, tumbling-block effect. There is no separate border; the geometric pattern runs to the plain outer edge on all sides. The palette stays within a narrow range of neutrals—cream, camel, and warm brown—giving the surface a consistent, understated tonal rhythm.

Vintage Kilim Composition

The field is composed entirely of small squares set on the diagonal, forming an overall checkerboard lattice with no distinct border framing it. Each square shows its own subtle striations, alternating between ivory, tan, taupe, and dark brown to near-black tones, creating a patchwork rhythm across the surface. The pattern runs uninterrupted to the edges, giving the piece an all-over geometric grid rather than a field-and-border composition.
