Introducing this striking two-tone Yazd Ziloo, a rare and captivating example of traditional Persian weaving. Handwoven in the historic city of Yazd, Iran, this reversible cotton textile features a bold vibrant red on one side and a serene turquoise blue on the other—a distinctive color pairing that’s rarely found in smaller Ziloo formats, making this piece especially unique.
Ziloos are traditionally woven from multi-ply cotton, prized for their durability, versatility, and ability to withstand heavy foot traffic, making them the ideal floor covering for high-use spaces. Historically used in mosques across Iran, many antique and vintage Ziloos available today were reclaimed from such sacred spaces, and their exceptional condition speaks volumes about the resilience of their craftsmanship.
This reversible design allows both sides to be displayed—either as a bold red accent or a calming turquoise feature—making it a versatile choice for modern interiors. Beyond mosques, Ziloos were also traditionally used beneath Persian carpets to protect finer weaves, and today they are gaining recognition for their decorative appeal and cultural value.
This particular Yazd Ziloo is woven on a strong cotton foundation using solid, high-twist yarns, ensuring that it maintains its integrity over time. Whether used as a floor rug, wall hanging, or table covering, this Ziloo combines functionality and visual impact, and would be an exceptional addition to any space that values heritage, craftsmanship, and originality.
