ABOUT THIS PIECE

Renowned for tight construction, vibrant hues, and distinctive lozenge patterns, Azari kilims are exquisite creations meticulously handwoven by artisans in northwestern Persia.

These kilims are crafted with a combination of handspun sheep and goat wool, employing natural dyes that enhance their charm.

Woven with a blend of improvisation and inspiration drawn from folk iconography, Azari kilims often portray an abstract aerial or side view of the weaver’s pastoral life. These depictions feature renditions of elements such as mountains, sky, and plants, capturing the essence of their natural surroundings.

Kilims are a terrific type of rug that is usually made from wool which is interwoven rather than knotted; this means that the surface is ‘flat’ instead of having a ‘pile’. Kilims exhibit some of the most original and unique designs within Persian rugs, with simple fields of colours, geometric shapes, and symbols. With their minimal design elements, they are perfectly suited for various interiors.

SIZE AND FIT

How it sits in your room.

275 × 160 CM (9' × 5'3"), DRAWN TO SCALE WITH TYPICAL AUSTRALIAN FURNITURE SIZES.

LIVING ROOM
3-SEATERTABLE
In front of the sofa

Long enough for a 3-seater sofa but not deep enough to reach under its front legs as well as hold the coffee table, so it sits just in front with the table on it. Floated like this it reads as a deliberate island.

DINING ROOM
TABLE
Seats 4, just

The chairs sit on the rug at the table, but with 40 cm of rug beyond the table their back legs catch the edge when pulled out. 60 cm is the comfortable margin.

BEDROOM
KING
Across a king bed

Under the lower part of a king bed with 46 cm of rug showing on each side, so your feet land on it either side of the bed.

YOUR ROOM

Measure the room, or just the area the rug should cover, and we will draw this rug in it to scale.
