Antique Persian Kilim Rug, circa 1900 - This strikingly graphic antique Persian kilim runner consists of of zig-zag shield medallions in soft persimmon red arranged against a blue-black ground in staggered rows. A small-scale border of reciprocal stepped diamonds provides an effective contrast or balance to the boldness and power of the field design. Rarely do Persian kilims like this achieve such strength and effectiveness, rivaling the finest Turkish kilims or Avar kilims from the Caucasus.
