Antique Shirvan Kilim 365x170cm

The field is a rich blue ground, intricately decorated with multicoloured lozenge motifs that create rhythm and vibrancy across the surface. Surrounding the central field is a light yellow border that brightens the composition, while the outer red border features a continuous evil eye motif—a powerful cultural symbol meant to offer protection and ward off negativity.

The colour combination is especially remarkable given the rug’s age—deep, saturated, and well-balanced, all achieved through natural dyes. The kilim remains in very good antique condition, with a few expertly re-woven areas that are discreet and consistent with the original weave, preserving both the piece’s integrity and aesthetic value.

Whether used as a floor covering, wall hanging, or layered textile accent, this kilim offers a perfect balance of history, symbolism, and decorative flair.
