"Sumak Rug. Kocan. Iran. 76 X 38 Cm"
It's small, but it has all the qualities of a larger piece! As we often see, it's very difficult to find the right composition in such a small format. A kilim needs space and freedom to fully express itself. 300 x 150 cm is the most common size. Within this space, the arrangement of motifs is most often built around a central field surrounded by borders, or on a succession of bands or other patterns. Here, we have a complete work that, in its miniature format, proudly reveals itself in its entirety. A true treasure! The Sumak technique is executed to perfection, the work precise and refined. The wool is of very high quality and incredibly soft. Let's move beyond the technical aspects and focus for a moment on the natural hues. They are perfectly harmonious, with variations in intensity here and there. The piece seems to breathe. Created like a musical score, its intricate motifs seem to flow naturally, each finding its place. Handwoven wool on wool. Late 20th century. Perfect condition. Dimensions: 76 x 38 cm.
