KILIM (in Persian "ghelim") means "woven carpet" and he differentiates from the knotted rugs because he is flat and without pile, in fact it is formed from threads of weft (horizontal threads) made to pass on alternate threads of warp (visible parallel longitudinal threads only in the fringe). The Kilim represents the principal form of art of the nomadic tribes, spreads in Persia since the most ancient times and also the origin of many pattern goes up again to prehistoric epochs. The art of the kilim is traditional prerogative of the women and is anonymous. The author doesn't need to sign her own work because she has not produced it to exchange but for her own necessities. This is an exemplary decorated with geometric polichrome pattern from the numerous forms. To note the particular frame.
