This big Qashqai kilim was woven with finely spun wool, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship. It is a moj (or jajim), a traditional kilim typically used to cover rugs and other textiles. However, this piece is thicker and heavier than most mojes, giving it a unique presence. In terms of structure, many striped kilims use the weft to create horizontal colour bands, but in mojes or jajims, as seen here, the warp creates the vertical stripes. The weaver added some colourful pompons. The weaver used a narrow loom to craft this piece and then meticulously joined the three stripes to achieve the desired width. One of the stripes features a beautifully plaited end for added detail. The natural colour palette has a rich range that includes a captivating pistachio green. The wool used is of the highest quality, shining with an elegant lustre. As a final touch, the weaver added a blue ceramic bead, believed to offer protection against the evil eye, adding both meaning and beauty to the design. Material: 100% hand-spun sheep wool Size: 310×177 cms Origin: Qashqai tribe, Iran Date of weaving: 1940-50s You can buy this jajim directly from our web: https://www.nomada.biz/en/producto/semi-antique-qashqai-moj-kilim-from-i...
