Handwoven from 100% wool using traditional flatweave construction, this approximately 50-year-old Kilim has an authentic time-worn character that reflects its age, craftsmanship and history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt approximately 187 × 122cm, its smaller proportions make it particularly well suited to an entrance hall, reading area, study, bedroom or smaller living space. Its warm, earthy palette also lends itself beautifully to rustic, farmhouse, safari lodge and interiors featuring antique or collected furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRug Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRug Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taimini Kilim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Afghanistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate Age:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handwoven \/ Flatweave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 187 × 122cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tribal Geometric Medallion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePredominant Colours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rust Red \/ Brick Red and Dark Brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Colours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cream \/ Ivory, Taupe \/ Camel, with subtle Teal \/ Dark Green accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Refurbished with age-related wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSale Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Auction — one unique piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAge, Condition \u0026amp; Refurbishment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe appeal of these approximately 50-year-old handmade rugs lies in their authentic aged character. Unlike a new rug, each piece carries the natural characteristics of decades of use, including areas of wear, variations in colour and texture, fading and other signs of age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe degree of wear varies from rug to rug. Some pieces may display considerably more worn areas than others, and this is reflected in the individual rug's condition and auction pricing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach rug has been professionally cleaned and refurbished as far as reasonably possible, while preserving its original character and naturally aged appearance. Where required, refurbishment may also include repairs or restoration to areas such as the fringes, edges or foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRefurbishment does not mean that the rug has been restored to an as-new condition. Areas of wear, previous repairs, variations in texture, fading and other age-related characteristics may remain visible and form part of the rug's individual character and appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese time-worn handmade rugs are particularly popular in farmhouses, safari lodges, luxury tented camps and interiors featuring antique, vintage or collected furniture. Older rugs of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to source, making each one an individual piece with its own history, colouring, pattern and degree of wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore Bidding\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease review all product photographs carefully before placing a bid. The photographs shown are of the actual rug being auctioned and provide the best representation of its individual condition, colouring and degree of wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you prefer the uniform appearance and finish of a new rug, the naturally worn character of these older handmade rugs may not be suitable for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional photographs or videos can be requested should you wish to examine the rug more closely. The rug may also be viewed in person at Heriz Gallery, Unit 1, The Straight Shopping Centre, 78 The Straight Avenue, Fourways, prior to bidding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: Measurements are approximate due to the handmade nature and age of these rugs. Slight variations in dimensions, shape and symmetry may occur. Colours may also appear slightly different depending on lighting, photography and individual screen settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach auction rug is a one-of-a-kind piece offered in its existing refurbished condition as represented in the product photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heriz Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67597058244974,"sku":"20780","price":6980.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/1669\/1310\/files\/hg-20780-1.jpg?v=1790697942","url":"https:\/\/herizgallery.co.za\/products\/rust-brown-taimini-kilim-tribal-rug-187x122cm","provider":"Heriz Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
