This fine undyed Northwest Persian kilim is a refined example of minimalist tribal weaving, inspired by the shifting tones and rhythms of the desert landscape. Handwoven from naturally colored wool, the composition relies entirely on the inherent shades of the fleece—soft ivories, warm sands, muted browns, and layered greys—creating a subtle, organic palette without the use of dyes.
The design features an abstract, geometric pattern of interlocking lozenges and gently undulating forms, evoking desert dunes seen from a distance. The fluid transitions between colors give the kilim depth and movement, while the balanced repetition reflects the weaver’s mastery and restraint.
Lightweight yet durable, this kilim exemplifies the aesthetic sophistication of Northwest Persian flatweaves. Its understated elegance and natural tones make it exceptionally versatile, suitable for both contemporary and traditional interiors.
