Shahsavan Kilim

The world of Shahsavan kilims is vast—too expansive for any single book. However, certain hallmarks are universally recognizable:
– Larger-than-average sizes
– Oversized central medallions (toranj)
– Bold geometric designs
– Slit-weave (chackdar) or Suzani techniques
– High-quality wool
– Vivid colors like magenta, saffron yellow, and violet—colors chosen with courage and clarity.
