Size: 6.5 x 5.8 ft. Origin: Caucasus Circa: 1910s Material: Pure Wool This antique Caucasian Shahsavan Jajim wool textile is a striking example of nomadic weaving tradition, featuring a dense array of vertical stripes in rich, earthy tones. Handwoven from naturally dyed wool, the textile displays a harmonious interplay of crimson, rust, ochre, walnut brown, and charcoal black, arranged in narrow alternating bands that create a rhythmic, almost meditative effect. Jajims like this were traditionally produced by Shahsavan tribes in the South Caucasus region, often used as bed covers, wraps, or tent dividers. The flatweave structure and precise striping reflect both functional durability and refined aesthetic sensibility, embodying the resourceful elegance of tribal craftsmanship. This piece offers a timeless textile statement suitable for both rustic and minimalist interiors. Authentic vintage and antique Caucasian textiles are hand-woven with wool.
