A finely hand-woven kilim from Afghanistan, made in 100% hand-spun wool. A blush-apricot ground carries frame within frame of soumak embroidery — stylised tree and vase motifs, diamonds, zigzags and hooks in navy, burgundy, sage, coral, teal and ivory — with a densely banded centre panel at the heart of it.
The lower end finishes in a broad panel of navy and apricot stripes carrying rows of lozenges and interlace, closed by an ivory fringe. Being a flatweave it is thin, light and reversible. A one-of-a-kind piece.
