Vintage Sarkisla kilim - 310 x 115 cm

Across this deep red ground stretching over 310 x 115 cm (10'2" × 3'9"), the motifs do not organise themselves into medallions but into a constellation, diamonds, stars, scrollwork that answer one another along the full height of the piece without ever repeating exactly, like a conversation that moves forward without a plan but with an obvious inner logic.

Şarkışla, approximately 70 years old. Saffron yellow and blue-grey erupt in bursts within this sovereign red, and the lateral borders in cream and gold sawtooth frame the whole with a sober elegance. This is a kilim one lays in a corridor and that transforms the passage into a destination.

One of a kind.
