Antique Kilim - N.W. Persian Small Scatter Size Wool Multicolor Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional flatweave piece, dating from the early 1900s, represents the enduring tradition of nomadic weaving. The simple, graphic design highlights the raw beauty inherent in antique rugs and textiles produced for domestic use rather than commercial markets.

Woven in the Northwest region of Iranian / Persian territory, this kilim utilizes robust, hand-spun wool. Its utilitarian stripe pattern is characteristic of tribal saddlebags or bedding covers adapted for floor use. Presented in a highly desirable small scatter size, it offers versatility for entryways or layering in intimate spaces.

The composition is defined by rhythmic, horizontal bands that create an effective allover design without reliance on complex figural motifs. The palette features saturated madder reds, deep indigos, and striking saffron yellows, resulting in a vibrant multicolor jewel-tone aesthetic typical of the finest natural dyes used during this era.

As a pure example of flatweave technique, this piece possesses a thin profile and remarkable durability. It is a sophisticated, minimalist textile that transcends its tribal origins, offering a powerful statement of color and structure suitable for contemporary or traditional interiors seeking authentic, early 20th-century character.
