Kilim Gashghaï Kashkuli Iran 240 X 144 Cm
Iranian kilim from the Fars region (southwest Iran), wool, circa 1960. Very good condition.
Beautiful color harmony for this original kilim. On a raspberry 'abraché' background (changes in tone within the same color) are depicted black and orange medallions containing zoomorphic figures. Prominent borders frame the kilim's field: the 'Aleh Abassi' border*, the 'Running Water' border**, and the 'Göl' motif***. Bands on either side complete this beautiful, authentic kilim.
* Aleh Abassi: tulip border.
**Running Water: flowing water representing life.
*** Göl or Gul: a small geometric medallion in the shape of a polygon, meaning 'flower' in Persian.
The Gashghai confederation comprises various tribes. Some examples include the Bozorg Kashkuli (the tall ones), the Kuchek Kashkuli (the short ones), the Shishboluki (six districts), and the Amaleh or Yalameh (workers, servants of the Khan).
