This handwoven kilim-rug in a kheshti (compartment) design measures 80 × 145 cm (2'7" × 4'9") and has an area of 1.16 m² (12.49 ft²). Woven in all-wool from natural fibers with a fine, even handle, it offers a weaving density of approximately 3,200 knots/dm². The kheshti layout is a geometric, symbolic structure in which symmetrical, repeating forms convey a sense of balance and order. In this kilim, each compartment—echoing Iranian architecture that seeks unity in multiplicity and meaning in form—reflects the artisan’s deep understanding of structure, equilibrium, and beauty. Lac-red, used for both field and border, brings a warm, radiant splendor that revitalizes the motifs. This traditional, authentic hue not only imparts intimacy and warmth to the space but also recalls the enduring Iranian art in which colors carry meaning and identity.
