Carpet - Gabbeh Gallery - Iran. Mid-20th Century. 285 X 92 Cm

A very bright Gabbeh rug from Iran featuring a geometric pattern composed of large rectangles in vibrant colors: red, yellow, blue, green, and almost black. The arrangement of shapes and the use of primary colors strongly recall the style of Piet Mondrian, a Dutch artist associated with the De Stijl movement. Mondrian's influence is evident here in the geometric abstraction and the clear separation of the colored blocks. With its organic forms, this piece is a true work of art to place on the floor! Woven and knotted wool on wool using traditional methods. The pile is thick, approximately 1.5 cm, for optimal comfort. Circa 1950. Superb condition. Dimensions: 285 x 92 cm. Laurent, Beauty of Kilims
