Shahsavan Khorjin
second half 19th century, 130 x 54 cm, North West Persia, Azerbaijan
A completely preserved Shahsavan kilim double bag. The faces show offset rows of large double arrows. In the border, red hooks with stepped outlines combine with the white ground to produce reciprocal forms, an effect that is visually appealing. The particularly beautiful connecting panel displays an abstract design of stepped devices in brilliant colours.
Condition
Good condition except for minor repairs.
