72067 Vintage Persian Kilim Gallery Rug, Wide Hallway Tribal Runner 05'03 X 11'03 From Esmaili Rugs Collection. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Kilim gallery rug features three stepped diamond-shaped medallions spread across an ink blue field. Large tree of life motifs, which represent the path from Earth to Heaven, and small cypress trees, representing rebirth, decorate the centers of the medallions. An array of ancient tribal motifs scattered throughout the field in a vivid display of botehs, birds, vases and additional cypress trees. The widely used boteh motif is thought to symbolize life with its resemblance to a number of natural forms, including leaves, bushes, pine cones, sprouts and flames. Birds are thought to represent faith and fertility. The flowering plants blooming forth from vases further add to the composition’s colorful sense of life. The innermost orange border features a blossom and leaf meander design, echoing the botanical motifs used throughout the central area. The diamond pattern in the royal blue border repeats the diamond-shaped blooms sprinkled throughout the composition. The simple orange ladder or comb outer border ties together the outlining elements of the piece and provides an essential finishing touch. Though the colors are saturated and strong, the disciplined manner in which they are handled makes the piece vibrant and alive but never overwhelming. The interplay of the various elements of this Persian Kilim gives it a wonderful sense of vitality and spirit. It is a fantastic piece that would enliven any room.
