All auctions / Carpets, Rugs & Textile / Handwoven Designer Kilim – Afghan Design - Kelim - 240 cm - 160 cm


This handwoven designer Kilim made of wool in traditional Afghan design combines centuries-old oriental weaving art with a fresh, modern color palette. Its expressive geometric ornaments, the harmoniously coordinated colors and the generous central diamond motif give it a lively yet stylish presence. The design is dominated by a large, geometric diamond composition that extends nearly across the entire carpet surface. The distinctive border in pink, pale pink and cream forms an appealing contrast to the turquoise background. Within the central diamond there are numerous traditional ornaments, stylized flowers, small diamonds, cross-shaped symbols and artfully arranged geometric figures. Particularly characteristic is the unconventional color palette of turquoise blue, sky blue, pink, hot pink, pale pink and delicate lilac. Warm accents in terracotta, rust red, orange, apricot and cream give the rug additional depth and liveliness. Individual dark details in anthracite and black create exciting contrasts. The symmetrically arranged patterns echo typical elements of traditional Afghan Kelim art. The stylized geometric motifs and the small ornamental decorations form a varied yet harmonious overall composition. Especially the combination of strong and pastel tones makes this Kilim an extraordinary eye-catcher. Through the traditional hand-weaving technique emerges the flat weave texture characteristic of kelims. Unlike high-pile carpets, Kilims have no raised knotted pile. This makes the geometric patterns particularly clear and expressive. The use of wool emphasizes the natural character of this rug. The material is pleasant, durable, and well suited for daily use.
