The Mazandaran Province is bound by the snow-topped Alborz Mountains and the southernmost shores of the Caspian Sea. Its striped kilims and primitive "sofrehs" (literally spreads) come in several styles. The district of Hezarjerib produces striking black-and-white striped kilims.. Solid fields and horizontal stripes are prevalent designs.
A very attractive antique Bakhtiari gallery carpet with a bold tribal character and an unusually lively design. The elongated dark brown to nearly black field is centered by a vertical succession of five large stepped geometric medallions, primarily in warm madder and terracotta red.
Each medallion is individually decorated with small rosettes, hooked devices, crosses and colorful geometric ornaments, giving the carpet wonderful variety rather than a rigidly repetitive appearance.
